Oklahoma Scientists Agreed to Keep Quiet about Fracking-Earthquake Link for 5 Years

State scientists in Oklahoma have avoided for the past five years saying anything publicly about the link between the state’s increase in earthquakes and the use of hydraulic fracturing to boost oil and gas production. But privately the scientists thought differently about the controversy.

After obtaining copies of government emails, EnergyWire found that Oklahoma seismologists suspected as far back as 2010 that fracking and drilling operations were the source of many of the recent earthquakes.


NOT SURPRISING!!!!
