Why We Need To Stop Fracking Now – The Political Vigilante | Graham Elwood

In this video, Graham Elwood examines a landmark study published in Science Advances analysing over one million births in Pennsylvania, revealing that infants born within one kilometer of hydraulic fracturing sites are 25% more likely to suffer from low birth weights, while calling out mainstream tech outlets for using "both-sides" corporate media framing to downplay the severe public health hazards of fracking.

In this video I discuss the following: 
✅ Pennsylvania birth study showing a 25% surge in low birth weight babies near fracking wells
✅ Long-term developmental complications linked to low birth weight, including asthma, ADHD, and infant mortality
✅ How corporate tech publications deploy "both-sides" narratives to appease fossil fuel advertisers
✅ Groundwater contamination, toxic air pollution, and induced seismic activity tied to shale drilling
✅ The urgent necessity of community organising, shutting down drill sites, and divesting from Big Oil
