Pros And Cons Of Fracking Report
The key word here is “sustainable”. First the community needs to see if the risk is worth the reward and if the environmental impacts it could impede on the local area. This could include local water supplies. A good example of this is fracking. Fracking includes blasting huge amounts of water and chemicals into the ground to access valuable oil and natural gas (Pros and Cons of Fracking 2014). With the increased movement of hybrid cars and better fuel mileage in vehicles in general, interrupting the ground water for a non-substantial resource doesn’t seem like a bright idea. The problem with this comes greed. One has to ask themselves the question, if I could be a millionaire overnight and hurt the environment would I do it? On the flip side,
natural gas can reduce CO2 emissions than coil and almost none of the mercury, sulfur dioxide or ash effects the air quality (Pros and Cons of Fracking 2014). Long-term with the decease for oil consumption it wouldn’t be wise to lose your water supply for the years to come.
If the local government did pass fracking in its community, some things should be considered. First research other communities that have already done fracking and see the economic effects it had and the cost associated with it. If it’s on an international level, research should be shared to prevent any environmental hazards, and local governments should be held accountable for their actions. The sustainability of the community depends on educated people who can appropriately decide on environmental issues associated with fracking. Some examples are the known carcinogens and poisons attributed to fracking. Pumping these chemicals in the ground will surely find its way into the water supply. The community should check their resources to see if it’s local townspeople or if its oil industry reports as they can be persuasive. Oil deposits should be a thing of the past and renewable energy should be the future. As it took thousands of years to make these resources it will take thousands to replenish them.
