Greenpeace reaction to the National Audit Office's report looking at the landscape of fracking in England

“It's not easy to admit when you're wrong, but fracking has been a failure and government should accept it. They say they want lower bills for people, but they’ve already wasted well over £1 per UK household propping up a pointless and divisive pursuit of a fossil fuel that our commitments to decarbonisation mean we can hardly use. We’re in a climate emergency, public opposition is sky high and fracking won’t bring us lower energy bills. It’s time to call an end to the farce.”
