Intro

My blog is about 'fracking' within South Africa, focusing primarily on the Karoo. 

The South African Government made the decision to lift the moratorium on fracking in South Africa. While the government has lifted its moratorium on shale gas exploration, the controversial hydraulic fracturing technique, ‘fracking’, is still restricted as the country weighs environmental risks against opportunities for economic development.
