Chevron halts Romanian shale gas development amid protest:
"Chevron Corp. took a step back from development of shale gas Romania, announcing that it would suspend operations following the fifth day of protests by villagers from Pungesti at a development site in the northeast of the country.
Priests and school children were amongst those who formed a living chain in front of Chevron vehicles shouting “We want to live” and “We don’t want to die”, according to Vremea Noua website.
The local town Council of Pungesti decided that the issue of shale gas development in the village area should be put to a referendum."
