The Government in Westminster is pressing ahead with support for a new set 
of "unconventional" fossil fuel technologies in an attempt to boost the UK 
economy. These technologies – shale gas (also known as "fracking"), coalbed 
methane and underground coal gasification – have a problematic safety 
record, and are known to risk serious environmental contamination as a 
result of their operation.

Over a series of four public workshops around South Wales, Paul Mobbs – an 
environmental consultant and researcher specialising in energy and 
ecological futures – will present the technical details of these "extreme" 
energy technologies, what ecological risks they present, and the flaws in 
the reasoning behind the UK Government's support for these technologies.

"We are not for names, nor men, nor titles of Government,
nor are we for this party nor against the other but we are
for justice and mercy and truth and peace and true freedom,
that these may be exalted in our nation, and that goodness,
righteousness, meekness, temperance, peace and unity with
God, and with one another, that these things may abound."
(Edward Burrough, 1659 - from 'Quaker Faith and Practice')

Paul's book, "Energy Beyond Oil", is out now!
