Rejected petition Fracking and the Floods

More details

In August 2013, David Cameron said the whole of the country must "get behind fracking", which ought to get "real public support" once its benefits are explained.

And now the country is suffering the worst flooding in living memory. Over 90% of scientsts say this is caused by Climate Change, which in itself is caused by human activities, including the burning of fossil fuels.

So David Cameron is advocating burning of more fossil fuels which will make Climate Change even worse than it is already?

Surely the Government should not be "getting behind fracking", but investing in more green energy schemes?
