AfriForum its support earlier this year at the Treasure the Karoo Action Group (TKAG) to hidrobreking (fracking) for shale gas in the Karoo to oppose. Since then, the groups launched batiste a massive campaign to try to prevent the South African government licenses grant that will allow companies to the Karoo ecosystem and heritage batiste with to damage hidrobreking. Cilleste van der Walt reported.
AfriForum and TKAG including their displeasure signaled by a small, peaceful protest action at passers-by and motorists could create awareness and encourage them to support the campaign.
According to Jonathan Deal, chairman of TKAG and recipient of the Goldman Environmental Prize for his fighting batiste hidrobreking in Africa, there are several issues that South Africa should be considered to be given the green light to shale gas. "We will seriously pollute water resources due to the chemicals used for hidrobreking. batiste No one may also indicate where the millions of gallons of water for the process will come, "said Deal.
The estimated 14 million gallons of water for hidrobreking in the Karoo will be used, after being used is 9.23 tons of hydrogen chloride, 7.421 tons of sodium hydroxide and 23.53 tons poisonous vervaardigingsbymiddels.
When asked where all the water in the arid Karoo will come, there is no answer. In addition soften the ontginningsmaatskappye the amount of water needed in their submissions, by mentioning that only 2.5 million liters of water will be needed. In fact, hidrobreking in the Tioga district in Pennsylvania, America conducted shows that there are about 14.126 million liters of water for a similar process.
The process will also inevitably lead to the influx of large numbers of workers who do not necessarily come from the local community will be. The concomitant decline of the region's infrastructure and expected increase in crime to the local community is a major concern.
In addition, the task force, which the Cabinet to inform batiste about the effects and impact hidrobreking for our country will have no input from key figures such as the Transport Minister of health, agriculture or tourism minister and so obtain. It is made unilaterally.
Hidrobreking since December 2010 on everyone's lips after the international oil giant Shell announced that he shale gas in the Karoo to exploit and to the Petroleum Agency of South Africa (Pasa) batiste applied for exploration for natural gas in the southwestern Karoo, respectively.
The Department of Mineral Resources in early 2011 a moratorium on new and existing applications for shale gas exploration and a task team to investigate the effects of hidrobreking. The moratorium was lifted in September 2012 after the task force's investigation found that hydraulic fracturing in the U.S. does not cause pollution.
