Don't Frack in NC

The Issue

When it comes to fracking, NC’s legislature is only giving its citizens a choice between two evils - frack sooner or frack later. Neither option would allow fracking to remain illegal in the state.

The first is a proposal by Mecklenburg Senator Rucho, who wants fracking to go ahead full speed with no holds barred. The other comes from McDowell Representative Gillespie, who also wants fracking to be a state industry, but only after some safety issues are worked out first.

But is that it? After over a century of devastation to humans, wildlife, the environment and global peace, must we begin yet another era of fossil fuel destruction?

Our legislators are ignoring a third choice: investing in non-fossil fuel energy alternatives.

Tell NC lawmakers to put alternative energy options on the table and forget about fracking!
