Gasland screens for Fermanagh and West Cavan audiences

Hydraulic Fracturing ("fracking") is the highly controversial method of drilling Australian company Tamboran Resources have confirmed they intend to use in Fermanagh. The company have recently secured Licensing options to further explore for Shale Gas Deposits in Fermanagh, Cavan and Leitrim. They met this week with Fermanagh District Council to further their plans for the County. 

"Fracking" is the subject of the Academy Award nominated film Gasland  screening 
 Cinema North West, Mobile Cinema
BLACKLION next Wednesday, 8.00pm.
Cinema parked at Enterprise Board Car-park. 

Gasland details the U.S. experience of "fracking" and highlights the extraordinary environmental side-effects involved: chemical pollution of ground-water; gas-leakage into ground-water aquifers and significant air pollution.

These are just a number of issues which the granting of licenses in Fermanagh as well as Counties Leitrim, Cavan and Donegal have raised in public debate recently.
Internationally, the process is banned in 50 municipalities in the U.S., the Canadian state of Quebec, France, South Africa. Hydraulic Fracturing was recently suspended in Lancashire following two earthquakes in the region.
