Shale Climate Impact debate: Don Siegel vs. Robert Howarth

September 17, 2012

Shale Climate Impact debate: Don Siegel vs. Robert Howarth

 Finally got ESF to post a debate from last December 2nd between Don Siegel and Robert Howarth, moderated by long-time ‘energy guru’ Charlie Hall. The video’s posted on Prof. Hall’s website:

http://www.esf.edu/EFB/hall/
(Right side, top: “Marcellus Shale Debate: Don Siegel & Robert W. Howarth”)

…An hour & 1/2 long video, worth watching entire.
Charlie is a top-notch moderator, and his students asked superb questions. Though the debaters start out addressing different concerns (Siegel ~ water & Howarth ~ climate impacts), they cover enough of same ground to widen the discussion.

Unlike some newscasts, you can stop & reposition video by time.
At ~ 40:15 minutes, Don says he’s come to like Bob’s paper.
Regarding the climate case for the next 20 years, Don basically admits Bob is likely right.

I think everyone, even the non-scientifically inclined, can learn much by watching this. No one was insulted or degraded, except maybe industry. What do you think, are the content and broader implications clear? Maybe R.Howarth could use some feedback.

Hydrofracking Forum (April 25, 2012) – YouTube

April 27, 2012

NYS Senate Minority Conference Hydrofracking Forum (April 25, 2012) – YouTube.
Forum: “Do Not Pollute Our Water by Hydrofracking!”
Dear Friend,
Wednesday my Democratic colleagues and I again took matters into our own hands to protect New Yorkers where the Senate Republicans have failed and have continued to ignore the concerns of the citizens they represent. Yesterday we invited advocates, experts, legislators and concerned families to testify and time after time after time each delivered the same message: “Do not pollute our drinking water by hydrofracking!”
Hydrofracking is a practice of extracting natural gases from the ground by blasting with a mixture of water and chemicals which are currently undisclosed and unregulated.  There have been dozens of extremely dangerous health and safety situations created by the process.
Once again the Majority Conference just doesn’t get it. They refused to hold a hearing on this matter which is why we went ahead and hosted a forum of our own.  It was a huge success.  In case you were unable to attend or watch live online, the hearing room was packed with advocates and members of the public who wanted to testify from our 11AM start time through until 3PM.   We had over 30 advocates testify about hydrofracking and time after time after time each delivered the same message.
We’ve taken all the video from Wednesday and put it online so you can review any and all of the participants and what everyone had to say.  There was a lot of great information being passed around.  For a summary of the whole event, you can read the press release here.
Please send back any feedback you have from today’s forum. I will keep you updated on my fight up here in Albany and I look forward to continuing our crusade to fight the frack today.
Sincerely,
Tony Avella
State Senator
