is there an energy/ nuclear/ fracking thread on this board ?

You probably know more about this site than I do and are probably aware of this already, but I thought I'd risk sounding like an idiot and mention that there are a couple of threads in the environmental justice subforum  that might be what you're looking for.  Maybe there's something in this subforum as well, but I'm not seeing it right off the bat.  Hope this helps as a start.
