We have an important concept,
A sustainable Solution to Ground Water & Soil Contamination,
Caused by Hydraulic Fraccing.
This concept protects Aquifers, re-carbonises the soil, filters & cleans Toxic fluids
It’s a system developed by private Hydrologist personnel, over the last 5 years.
A system with No scientific documents, but with hard Evidence,
Coal Seam Gas activities risk damaging the Nations Precious water & food supplies
“2GBs’” Allan Jones address to the “Nation Press Club” canvassed all the issues
Our system [concept] will change the contaminants in the toxic water at the “WELLHEAD”
Australia will be able to Monitor all the products extracted.
Agriculture land will be returned to Aussies in an improved condition [re-carbonised] fertile land.
Benefiting Future Australians...................
