that hydraulic fracking is good for the environment because it puts toxic waste into the ground‚ contaminates water supplies and the accidental spills lead to much devastation‚ and even our groundwater gets contaminated. Toxic waste from the hydraulic fracking is one of the worst things that is happening as of right now. Fracturing fluid chemicals are known to cause cancer and they sometimes use the fracturing fluid for flowback. The flowback of fracturing enters the air easily. Hydraulic fracking

Stephen E. Noreck MET 1100 11/30/10 Assignment 13 Lab Report Summary The purpose of the report is to demonstrate a flexible hydraulic joint which was inspired by the legs of a spider. The author theorizes that a deformable tube can be used in a joint in lieu of a hinge‚ akin to the blood-filled spaces within a spider’s leg‚ will grant the robotic joint greater range of motion. The initial test demonstrated a single joint on a rigid frame. A weight was applied to a suspended beam‚ applying

Hydraulic Fracturing Over the past few decades‚ the United States has become heavily reliant on using nonrenewable resources. The excessive uses of these resources‚ such as coal‚ are extremely harmful to the environment and can be considered responsible for global climate change and the destruction of a once healthy atmosphere. Some companies have claimed to find a “clean” source of energy called natural gas‚ found deep within the Earth’s crust. Commercials created by these companies state that

Many people are fascinated and astonished with the term “Fracking”‚ which is a process of injecting liquid at high pressure into subterranean rocks‚ boreholes‚ and other forms of rocks so that the force of the liquid can open existing cracks or holes to extract oil or gas. Fracking was discovered by Geologist who found out that further opening a rock formation can expose oil and gas that’s within the rock‚ but however even though Geologist is fascinated and intrigued by this process other people
