That is absolutely terrifying to watch. The only difference between Australia's situation and ours is the accent.
I love the part where the Queensland Mines Minister admits that he doesn't know what chemicals are being rammed into the ground. Then he rationlizes it by saying that he's been assured that they are using appropriate chemicals to release the gas. What the hell does that mean??
So as long as the chemicals appropriately release the gas, I guess it doesn't matter what the impact is on human health and safety.
Shocking stupidity and greed!!
