some weeks ago the news networks reported that an oil company executive was suing his own company as they were preparing to commence operations of his property.
My brother lives next to a wind farm. He said what was once a quiet beautiful farmland now drives him nuts with the constant noise.
When the wind blows the right way he can even hear the blades inside his house with the windows up.
He's owned his home there for 30+ years and now the value of the property is pretty much nil.
Probably better than fracking on the same property, but he would probably have a better chance of selling his land to the fracking company than he does with the owners of the wind farm.
Seems fracking is okay for oil company executives unless it's in their own backyard.
