Cracking down on Fracking: Frackfree America National Rally Day

Fracking, a drilling method to extract natural gas, is an environmental catastrophe. It is linked to earthquakes, spills, leaks and contamination of drinking water and air. Oil companies are fracking right next door in Inglewood Oil Fields and Baldwin Hills. Not only is it going on right here right now and directly affects us, but oil companies are legally allowed to keep ALL details from us. WE ARE NOT INFORMED. 

DEMAND CLEAN WATER, SOIL, AND AIR.

DEMAND PROTECTION OF YOUR HEALTH AND SAFETY

This is a national event put on by Frackfree America National Coalition and NEOGAP. Simultaneous rallies will be held in Alabama, Colorado, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and South Dakota. It is a problem here too, and this is the ONLY WEST COAST RALLY.

Get the word out and get the frack out!
