The produced water is polluted with chemicals and left on the mining site for animals to drink. The chemicals injected into the well like “benzene and methanol”(Facts About Fracking) are very dangerous and cause harm to humans and other living things. “The liquid used is toxic and several substances are known to cause cancer”(Hydraulic Fracturing 101). On top of this, “Natural gas can rise into the atmosphere, and cause air pollution and global warming”(Facts About Fracking). Spills of the Fracking liquid can also cause serious “contamination of surface water and soil contamination”(Hydraulic Fracturing 101). These substances that go into the well and come out have a tremendous impact on the environment, threatening all living
