Is Fracking A Good Idea?

There is a great deal of water used in the process of fracking. In the process of fracking a mixture of water, clay, and chemicals is pumped down the well and water makes up an overwhelming high percentage of the fracking fluid (Is Fracking a Good Idea?). Some wells can take up to 1,000 water trucks which is 5 million gallons of water (One Fracking Minute). All of the water used during fracking could be drinking water. Some wells can take up to 11.5 million liters of water just for that well (What the Frack?). This means it would take 25 million gallons of water for just 5 wells. There are about 7,788 wells just in Pennsylvania which means 38,940 million gallons of water was used, imagine how much more water was used
elsewhere.
