Quoted Text
A report by the Colorado School of Public Health, released Jan. 28, gathered evidence
from heavily drilled rural Colorado, which has among the highest densities of oil and gas wells
in the U.S.
Living near hydraulic fracturing — or fracking — sites may increase the risk of some birth defects
by as much as 30 percent, a new study suggests. In the U.S., more than 15 million people now
live within a mile of a well.
“What we found was that the risk of congenital heart defects (CHD) increased with greater
density of gas wells — with mothers living in the highest-density areas at greatest risk,”

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.
