We have just days to flood them with our voices. If enough of us write to them we can show the government the world is looking to them for leadership, and we could win.
Send a message now by using the tool on the right and feed in directly to the public consultation! Here are some talking points to consider, but remember -- the more personal, the better.
- As a member of the Scottish public, I call on you to ban unconventional oil and gas from Scotland until we know it’s 100% safe to our health.
- There is overwhelming evidence that proves fracking chemicals are cancerogenic, can be linked to reproductive health problems and lead to dangerous water pollution.
- Experts say economic benefits of fracking are exaggerated. Household energy bills won’t be reduced and the estimated costs will be much higher than in US.
- More and more states and counties across US and Australia are banning fracking. I ask you to act responsibly for the future of our homeland!
- Burning fossil fuels is the key driver of global warming. Experts are warning: letting fracking industry in could mean that Scotland won’t meet its legally binding climate targets. We can’t afford to frack our planet.
