Fracking Follow Up

March 15, 2016 Brian Robin

Last Thursday, we were treated to a very informative talk about hydraulic fracturing by Professor Maurice Dusseault. For anyone who missed the talk or are interested in learning more, Professor Dusseault was interviewed by the Sun Times: Fracking both bad and good.

Additionally, he has made the slides from his presentation and a technical paper available:
