MEET John Graves has been the managing partner of a mid-sized independent financial advisory firm for 28 years. His interest in the world of shale gas and oil sprang up from a question a client asked, “Isn’t this fracking thing dangerous to the Earth?” As a concerned citizen and as a financial analyst, he approached the industry from the bottom and worked his way to the top.

Little did she know the movement she began would lead to the destruction she envisaged.
