The Sierra Club is having some success in the Northeast and are one of the groups sending carpetbagger "experts" in to hold so-called "informational meetings" or offer "speakers" at town(ship) and village board meetings in order to "educate" board members as to the horrors that will befall them is gas drilling is allowed. The trend is to show the movie "Gasland" and after handing out flyers, request pledges and donations to "defray" the expenses of bringing these revelations to us. The first two towns that went along have been sued by landowners. Adding legal expenses to property and school taxes and the good chance Obama or the next guy will let the Bush Tax Cuts expire will be the perfect storm for farmers. The EPA just about killed coal, but the Sierra Club action will insure that it remains 50% of the energy mix. And it will be the sulphur filled soft coal that gets used as it is cheaper than mined coal. NYS gets the same sunlight as London and wind is unreliable, but gas is bad, and they want to spend 30 million to lobby against it. Capstone Turbines can run on gasified coal, just takes one more energy wasting step.
