Guest: Robin Archdekin, Geoscience BC

We need to monitor British Columbia's resources, including the water needed for hydraulic fracturing.

That is according to Robin Archdekin of Geoscience BC. He says Geoscience BC provides an invaluable resource to people who want and need unbiased information about the state of natural resources in the province. "We gather the data and publish it without any agenda, regardless of the outcome, good or bad – and we make it available to everyone."
