Description: Chasing Crazy Horse II by John O. Hunter Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Chasing Crazy Horse II is a hard-hitting polemical survey of the current dangers to our land and water because of fierce new mining technologies-- deep earth drilling and hydro-fracking-- to reach natural gas and oil trapped in huge rock formations, such as the Bakken (North Dakota), the Barnett(Texas), Powder River Basin(Wyoming), and Marcellus Shale(New York/Pennsylvania). The author begins where he left off in his first volume of Chasing Crazy Horse, tracing further losses of native American lands in the Missouri River basin, then moves to the phenomenal surge of new wealth and jobs at the cost of environmental degradation in Plains states. The driving force is the promise of becoming carbon-based energy dominant, freed from dependence on foreign oil. All of the states involved in the fracturing technology have serious issues with water contamination. Unlike the Plains states, New York has an abundance of fresh water with many lakes and streams and waterfalls. The state has not yet made the leap to large-scale hydro-fracking, but the stage is set for serious confrontation. The author cites not only basic values at stake, but "a better way" through more patient reliance on the natural world, Native American example, and science of artificial intelligence.
