Saving the Earth

Our children’s children and posterity will be ever thankful that finally our love of the environment prevailed in the ban on fracking, led by the Fine Gael TD Tony McLoughlin, Sligo/ Leitrim and the many concerned activists who worked so hard over the years.

Fracking would have destroyed this green land of ours with its polluting chemicals, noise and disruption; it would be done for the benefit of the few who know the price of everything but the value of nothing.

May those in the North follow suit in protecting their environment as well, for pollution knows no borders.

John-Patrick Bell, Manorhamilton, Co. Leitrim.
