    Just a decade ago, only the smallest sliver of the U.S. population had even heard of Hydraulic Fracturing or Fracking. Today it is a widespread and commonly discussed Issue throughout the United States and the rest of the world.

    In recent years, wells built for this form of natural gas extraction have spread by the thousands through various parts of the country. Whether fracking can continue spreading without major harm to the environment or public health, and whether it promises to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, are questions researchers are still working to answer.  ]]>     2016-03-13 15:40:49 UTC https://padlet.com/colecole_cc_cc/5g5lvr04t9ma/wish/100645121     colecole_cc_cc https://padlet.com/colecole_cc_cc/5g5lvr04t9ma/wish/100655185

    The use of hydraulic fracturing to extract oil and gas from the earth  dates back to the 1940s; but only in the past few years has "fracking"  become an energy buzzword.

    Today, "fracking" alludes primarily to the shale gas boom in  the United States, and all of the controversy that has accompanied it. ]]>     2016-03-13 18:46:58 UTC https://padlet.com/colecole_cc_cc/5g5lvr04t9ma/wish/100655249     How Do You "Frack" colecole_cc_cc https://padlet.com/colecole_cc_cc/5g5lvr04t9ma/wish/100655367
    Fracking is the high-pressure injection of water, chemicals and sand into petroleum deposits to help release the oil & gas trapped within the reservoir rock.

    In recent years, Fracking has been combined with horizontal drilling and other  improvements in technology to harvest stores of gas and oil that  previously were thought commercially unfeasible to access.]]>     2016-03-13 18:49:04 UTC https://padlet.com/colecole_cc_cc/5g5lvr04t9ma/wish/100655367     My Opinion colecole_cc_cc https://padlet.com/colecole_cc_cc/5g5lvr04t9ma/wish/100655787
    I feel that as long as fracking is done safely, then it should be an allowable procedure.

    A scenario where I would say that Fracking could be allowable would at depths greater than 5000 feet; or in very remote locations away from towns or delicate Eco Systems.]]>     2016-03-13 18:56:21 UTC https://padlet.com/colecole_cc_cc/5g5lvr04t9ma/wish/100655787     Videos colecole_cc_cc https://padlet.com/colecole_cc_cc/5g5lvr04t9ma/wish/101835297 Homeowner
