Lennon fights fracking with a little help from his friends

Sean Lennon is getting a little help from his friends to fight fracking in his own backyard. Turns out fame doesn’t prevent energy companies from drilling in your garden, particularly when there’s a good chance a wealth of precious gas is under it, as is the case with the New York farm where Sean frolicked as a toddler -- and which he now owns. But Sean and Yoko have reignited that 1960s anti-establishment spirit, launching Artists Against Fracking and enlisting a squadron of famous folks to spread the word. His list of supporters reads like an Oscar party VIP list: Alec Baldwin, Uma Thurman, Lady Gaga, Gwyneth Paltrow, Hugh Jackman... You get the picture. [Source]
