  • Study raises safety concerns for the country’s 36,000 fracking disposal sites.
  • Thousands of wells, millions of gallons of toxic fluid per well – what could go wrong?

It’s not just waste-water injection causing earthquakes…

Posted on April 7, 2016 by John Gray

New research suggests that hydraulic fracking of oil and gas wells is behind earthquakes caused by humans in Western Canada.

A study, published Tuesday by a group of top Canadian researchers, says problems in Alberta and British Columbia aren’t being caused by injecting waste water underground. It’s a major step in understanding seismic events that have already led to changed regulations in Alberta and caused public concern in both provinces.
