Wind and solar are the way to go. I dont think there is as much shale gas at the Preston site as was thought.

How long do they have to wait for fracking to recommence after a quake?

The opening post link it states "Activity will now be halted for 18 hours"

Apparently there are earthquakes happening regularly...just never reported.

Surely fracking stopped on Friday for the bank holiday? If there was no fracking activity, would there still be quakes?

Maybe it's all to do with geology maureen.
The Geology
"The mineralogy of the Lancashire Bowland shale has been analysed in detail using X-ray diffraction of shale core samples and cuttings taken from the Preese Hall well. This analysis has confirmed that both the Upper and Lower Bowland shales are very well suited to hydraulic fracturing as they are formed from a highly siliceous matrix with consistently low overall clay content and not reactive clays"

What gets me is this...
Fracking is method of extracting oil and gas from the earth. In the USA they do this on a widespread basis and therefore provide very cheap oil and gas to residents. Now when they drill for oil and gas in the usual way, they must leave a large 'hole in the ground' where the product was. How is this different from fracking?
People are quick to get on the bandwagon and our government is slow to offer us a cheaper product....go figure.
Makes me annoyed, to put it politely.
