Behind the Seams: who’s asking questions about coal seam gas and health? | Crikey

Behind the Seams: who’s asking questions about coal seam gas and health? | Crikey:
CSG development poses poorly assessed, yet potentially serious health risks to the community, through contamination of water, air and soil, as well as complex long-term impacts. Current assessment, regulation and monitoring of impacts on the environment, public health and vulnerable communities are insufficient to give confidence of adequate safeguards. If we do not act now and demand that our health be protected we may find that no amount of money can compensate us later.
