The Fossil Fuel Myth And The Devastation Of Fracking

Michelle Walling, CHLC – The use of gasoline or petrol is a necessary evil in order for most us to operate in our daily lives at this time. As consciousness rises, humanity will find that the government has had technology that can operate cars and heat homes out of free energy, but has kept such technology hidden. Not only that, but we are slowly learning that almost everything tied to oil and gas drilling has been wrapped in a web of deceit.

When I had my “aha” moment of awakening five years ago, my ex husband and I were running an engineering consulting firm at the highest levels of competence for many of the major oil companies. Of course I had to leave the industry when I “woke up”, and now I am here to tell the truth about oil and gas drilling and its impact upon the environment. As I look back on how I ended up working in the oilfield industry, I have realized that I needed to have an inside perspective in order to understand the illusion created around it. This experience as well as my spiritual and metaphysical studies would allow me the knowledge needed to contribute to figuring out solutions.

How drilling works

Drilling involves setting up a drilling rig and using a very large diamond infused drill bit to dig into the crust of the earth. Chemicals mixed with clay called “mud” are used to keep the drill bit cool, to equalize the pressure, and to pump the slough out of the well as they drill. Explosives are used to break through layers that may be too hard for a drill bit to go through. The hole walls are reinforced with a steel casing pipe and equipment is installed in this pipe that allows for the petroleum or gas to be filtered up through the pipe through natural pressure. More equipment is installed that regulates the flow of the oil or gas once a pocket is tapped. The large rig is removed after the well is “completed”, and the oil is pumped through more pipe at the surface into a holding tank or to miles and miles of pipeline that are connected to a refinery.
