first one concerning the potential detrimental environmental impact that Fracking poses. They voice anger at the gas exploration and production companies like <strong>Cuadrilla<\/strong>, who own the Fracking wells, and plan on opening them in Britain. Raising concern about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/uk\/home-news\/fracking-shale-gas-to-arrive-in-uk-from-us-pipeline-atlantic-a7330966.html\">air and water pollution<\/a>, earthquake arising near Fracking wells, and damage to&nbsp;nature, the protestors made compelling cases against the disputed gas extraction practice.
