Empire State Divide

This video shows the contrast between two states Pennsylvania and New York.  It is very well done and makes a strong case why drilling is important to the average American.  The video was done by Karen Moreau as a tribute to her father a mushroom farmer in upstate New York.  Karen’s family operates the last commercial mushroom farm in the Hudson Valley and in my view her story constitutes a very compelling case for why we need greater access to shale development in the US. The video clearly shows the compatibility between drilling and other uses of the land especially farming.
