Would you be happy if a gas company were fracking for shale gas under your home?

Under new legislation gas companies no longer have to inform individual home owners if they plan to extract shale gas from under their homes. "The Not for Shale legal block is a campaign by Greenpeace to support residents in fracking-affected communities to challenge the Government and the companies trying to drill in their immediate area."
"It is unlawful for fracking companies to drill under your home without your permission. Search your postcode and join the legal block today to protect your home and community from fracking."

I'd be quite happy for them to be fracking under my home, but then I actually know something about it and am not relying on the "green" lobby to inform me of things they know little or nothing about (or choose to ignore). I highly doubt if it is unlawful for companies to drill/frack under your home, few people own the rights to the minerals/gas/oil or anything under their homes in this country.
The truth is that fracking has been going on in this country for a long time (>30 years) with no ill effects noted. Bet greenpeace won't tell you that though.0 -
I'm happy for tracking to continue; I have researched it quite a bit and found that there are more pros to cons.
I'd happily give them permission to frack under my house.
OP, perhaps try to put effort into something that needs fixing, like the number of children going hungry, poverty in the UK maybe?0
