Many may ask‚ “why has fracking become such a big deal when the process has been around since the 1940’s?” Oil companies have designed a new way to frack to get the most of the oil and natural gas out of the earth; this process is called horizontal drilling. Horizontal drilling has made fracking become a problem all around the globe (Brantley). This process has enabled engineers to inject

believe that fracking causes earthquakes. I believe that fracking does not cause earthquakes at all. Due to the research I have found‚ the articles have changed my opinion. I previously thought fracking caused earthquakes. Let me tell you the facts that could prove fracking does not cause earthquakes. The main cause of the increase in earthquakes in the central United States is due to the use of wastewater disposal. Wastewater disposal uses a lot more than fracking. When fracking occurs it is

Fracking can be both good and bad in today’s world. Fracking can be good in many ways such as its an alternative use for fuel because we use so much each day. This means that we have more gas and oil to use for cooking‚ heating and powering out cars‚ for instance. Also‚ it reduces the amount of toxic chemicals in the earth’s surface because it uses so much water. With oil and gas being pumped from the ground locally then the energy cost around the country will be cheaper instead of having them shipped

Since the 1990’s‚ modern day fracking has been a technique used to extract natural gas from shale‚ tight sandstone and coal beds. This is done first drilling a deep hole into the rock and then injecting a mixture of water‚ sand and chemicals and blasting them into the rock formations under very high pressure. This process produces an abundance of natural gas that could power homes and businesses for many years. Although some people believe that hydraulic fracturing causes environmental harm and costs

The shale contains largely untapped natural gas reserves‚ and its proximity to the high-demand markets along the East Coast of the United States makes it an attractive target for energy development.[Hydro-fracking is different from conventional natural gas drilling because it uses a lot more water (billions of gallons). There’s an increased potential for toxicity and long term impacts in hydro-fracking as well. It also has several environemental impacts‚ including habitat

Fracking is a fairly new method of extracting natural gas. Fracking can be defined as a method to remove natural gas from the ground. Another way to describe fracking also known as hydraulic fracturing is the process of creating fissures in underground formations to allow natural gas to flow (Natural Gas Extraction – Hydraulic Fracturing | US EPA). This allows the gasses to leak through the cracks to be effectively captured and stored for use. The process for fracking is as follows: First they begin

The environmentalist/anti fracking point of view shown in the documentary “Gasland” is a very informative‚ and important documentary that people everywhere should watch. The narrator‚ Josh Fox offers several valid and intelligent points about the possible dangers of fracking‚ and the many chemicals used in it. However‚ Fox is a very biased narrator‚ and at several points offers invalid evidence. For example‚ Fox attempts to instill fear in the viewer‚ in his controversial scene‚ detailing the many
