In the 1940s, explosives were replaced by high-pressure liquids, beginning the era of hydraulic fracturing.]]> 2022-05-01 18:23:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2165925757 jaellepayoute https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2165956131 Natural gas is clean energy and eliminate coal and petroleum.

Fracking is the best way to extract natural gas.

Replacing coal and petroleum with natural gas allows the US to achieve reductions in greenhouse gases.

Natural gas has lower emissions than coal when burnt for power and is a much cleaner way of generating electricity.

It helps improve the economic with employment.

Production of oil and natural gas in the United States will help bring down gas prices.

Fracking has many pros and cons about it. I believe that fracking can help the economy and bring more jobs to the area. Fracking in Unite  States is better than being dependent on other countries. ]]> 2022-05-01 22:08:58 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2166034157 jaellepayoute https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2166123854 Fracking follows the basic principle of cracking rock and propping it open to allow oil and gas to come out.]]> 2022-05-02 00:52:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2166123854 jaellepayoute https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167470493 " Fracking has allowed the US to produce and export more natural gas, which has increased national security and moved the country toward energy independence. America’s energy independence has made our country more secure, put more money back in our pockets." 
 I believe this the better arguement for why fracking in the United States should continue. It helps build our  economic and less dependent on other countries. Help provide jobs to local area.

I think this is the weakest point because although global warming is happening I don't believe that fracking is the only reason that it's happening.]]> 2022-05-02 22:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167474189 jaellepayoute https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167476365 The most persuasive side will be the pro of fracking and how using natural gas to bring more energy how it will help the economy.

In the beginning I was against fracking because of global warming and the earthquake that it's causes. Now I think that if fracking is done correctly that it has more benefits to help the United States in being more independent and bringing in it's own resources for renewable energy. With technology that in that sector they found better ways in extracting the gases from the underground. ]]> 2022-05-02 23:12:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167486166 jaellepayoute https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167491114 2022-05-02 23:19:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167491114 jaellepayoute https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167491636 2022-05-02 23:19:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167491636 jaellepayoute https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167492696 2022-05-02 23:21:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167492696 jaellepayoute https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167493105 2022-05-02 23:22:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167493105 jaellepayoute https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167493589 2022-05-02 23:22:56 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2167493589 ptiller5 https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2172375874 Hello Jaelle! I was excited to read this project because in all honesty, I had no idea what the word "fracking" even meant. Your project was very informative and easy to understand. My question to you is the following:
Do you think that the cons of fracking will outweigh the pros as time goes on? For example, do you think that one day, the environmental effects will get to a point where the economic benefits won't be worth it?]]> 2022-05-06 03:46:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2172375874 krosari1 https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2174965471 Jaelle, great job on this project. Before reading up on your padlet I only had a vague idea of what fracking was. You helped clarify much of the confusion and questions I had about it. I love how you added a section explaning the process of fracking and included illustrations to help visualize the process. One thing I'd do differently is expand on the Cons of fracking. Other than that, great job!

Question:
After reading up on Fracking, it seems that it is fairly unregulated. How would you change that?]]> 2022-05-09 03:05:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jaellepayoute/d2h64bymts8kjam7/wish/2174965471
