Frackman ( Study Guide)
$7.50
DESCRIPTION
Frackman tells the story of accidental activist Dayne Pratzky and his struggle against international gas companies. Australia will soon become the world's biggest exporter of liquefied natural gas, as around 30,000 wells are sunk into the state of Queensland where Dayne lives. Many of these wells require a controversial drilling practice known as 'fracking'. Dayne and his neighbours have unwittingly become the centre of a massive industrial landscape, and they have little power to fight the wishes of the $200 billion industry. Dayne embarks on a journey that transforms him from conservative pig-shooter to sophisticated global activist as the 'Frackman'. He meets the people drawn into a battle that is crossing traditional divides, bringing together young and old, city and country, farmers and environmentalists, progressives and conservatives. Along the way, Dayne finds love, tragedy and triumph. Curriculum Links: Frackman is rated M and contains occasional coarse language. As such, it is recommended for students in Years 10–12.
