During the tutoring I felt very well, I learned many things, like what is fracking. It is a technique that serves to extract gas from the ground, through hydraulic fracturing.

Thanks to the content shown on how fracking is done I have been able to understand both the usefulness that can be given to it, as well as the consequences it has for the human being and the environment

Fracking is the worst phenomenon created by man due to the fact that the large amounts of water used for this purpose are severely affected and also the risk of contamination of groundwater and the surface they generate in its extraction.

I was not able to be during the tutoring, but I did the exercises on my own and I checked the Edpuzzle and saw the videos. They were very interesting, specially the one from The Simpsons it was very funny.

I learned that fracking is a technique for extracting oil and gas from earth but it has environmental consequences that we all should be concerned of. We can't contaminate water in that way.

It is a from of exploitation of hydrocarbons in which a mixture of water, sand and chemical products is injected into the subsoil at hihg pressure in order to fracture the earth and release the hydrocarbons in the form of gas that are in the shales that are part of the deeper in this subsoil.
this practice has been condemned for it is impact on human health that is the result on the gases emanating from it due to the effects it has on the enviroment that are seen above all, in the water sources thet are contaminated by elements radioactive.

I disag with the fracking because it´s an activity that leads to many causes that are affecting the environment and in some way also puts us at risk, this is because they are using large amounts of water averaged between 3 a 6 gallons, also to this has been the contamination in the atmosphere by the migration of gases that this produces and in many cases the contamination in the aquifers and the prolongation in the seismic activity

Forum (Fracking) Gabriela Morales

2019-03-29 02:52:55 UTC

I do not agree with the fracking, since for example in the case of Colombia or most of the countries, no studies have been carried out in their territory, if they do not want to implement this system with bases of studies carried out in the United States, which is illogical and that our geography is very different from that of that country, that is to say, while they are supplying underground water at a depth of approximately 500 meters, Colombia is already going for 2000 meters. This means that there are more risks of contamination to the water.

Forum (fracking) Flor Hernandez

The great contamination that today padecer the countries, where fracking activities have been carried out has left terrible consequences for the poblations, such as poverty and great contamination of water, earth and air.
In Colombia we should not allow more activities with fracking so we can take care of our environment that we still have left.
The big invitation is to become aware, so do not let us buy for the money.

Fracking is a process used to extract oil and natural gas from historically inaccessible reservoirs, which can bring benefits to some communities or rural areas that do not have access to natural gas, but can cause damage to the environment and therefore to human beings due to the pollution that would be generated.

Fracking is the economic activity that generates significant environmental impacts on society and on ecosystems. I think that if you do not have a good operational control this activity should not work because it is contaminating
the water in an inconsiderate way and also generating carbon dioxide emissions contributing to global warming of the planet. Should have more follow-up on the part of the competent environmental corporations.

It is of great importance to keep track of the franking process because it produces so much profit and they forget to keep track of the damage that can lead to nature, so it is presenting a great impact on the environment. so I do not agree because you think more about profits and not investing in land studies, control and improvement of the environment

Fracking is a hydrocarbon hydraulic extraction strategy that is a nation in the United States, where pollution is generated since different toxic agents are used to extract oil from the rocks, this causes water sources to be contaminated, I do not agree with this This practice is a highly harmful alternative to the environment, where it increases pollution of water sources and land, and several countries in the European Union have rejected and banned this practice.

Jesus Gomez

2019-08-31 20:00:54 UTC

I do not agree about fracking because this practice brings very few benefits and many negative consequences to the environment such as: the abusive use of water, the expulsion of polluting gases, possible tremors and earthquakes and contaminated waters.

Fracking we can say that it is a technique to extract natural gas from unconventional deposits. The purpose is to exploit the gas accumulating in the pores and fissures of certain stratified sedimentary rocks of fine or very fine grain, usually blackboards or loams, whose occasional permeability prevents the movement of gas in the areas of easier extraction. For this, it is necessary to perform certain wells occupying large areas such as the separation between round between 0.6 and 2 km, and inject in millions of water loaded with a chemical and toxic cocktail to extract the product.

To the point that it disturbs in too many aspects the environment stability. I don't have knowledge on the subject but...i shows myself with a stance totally against.

No, I'm not agree with fracking. Because this activity has many disadvantages, fracking pollutes water and air. Also, the cost is greater than the benefits. And a lot of water is used in the process. this can inducing earthquakes.

Stefanny G.
The consequences of fracking for health or the environment are the following

* High water consumption and its loss for the hydrological cycle.
* Depletion of water sources.
* High generation of toxic waste and handling difficulties.
* Pollution of groundwater and surface water.
* Atmospheric pollution.
* Migration of gases and substances from the hydraulic fluid to the surface.
Soil pollution due to spills and return flows.

The fraking is an activity that does not contribute to the preservation of the environment, on the contrary it constitutes a risk for it, therefore I disagree with this practice

When examining Fracking some advantages and disadvantages are evident for the human being and his environment,
One of the advantages is that it makes it possible to streamline many aspects of daily life; such as fuel for transport vehicles, natural gas, economic solvency, etc.
The disadvantages, is that this activity imbalances the environment; when earthquakes, water and air polluted. I definitely don't agree with Fracking.

The debate about fracking in Colombia follows ‘red hot‘. To the recent decision of the State Council to keep suspended the legal framework that regulates the use of this technique in the country and the debate on this issue in the Fifth Committee of the House of Representatives, adds another edge.

This is the incident of contempt that the Podión Corporation and the Colombia Free Fracking Alliance considered for the apparent breach of the Government to the precautionary measure issued by the State Council, after considering that the rules by the multinational Drummond were being violated, Company that is operating 15 gas wells in coal mantles, in its Caporo Norte project of the La Loma block, located between the municipalities of Chiriguaná and La Jagua (Cesar).

According to these two organizations, the extraction is carried out in an unconventional field that is regulated in Decree 3004 of 2013 and is part of the regulations suspended by the High Court

The risks to the environment and health associated with fracking have drawn international attention, with some countries for and others against. While some governments, encouraged by the oil and gas companies, try to put this technique into practice, researchers, communities and other governments base their opposition on studies that document the many risks and damages it causes. In reality, the problem is mainly economic and political, because currently the protection of the environment faces great interests and has a secondary place in the decisions of governments.

Fracking is a technique of great utility and importance for the extraction of mineral resources trapped in rocks in the subsoil, since with this method the production levels of said minerals increase greatly. But not everything is good, fracking also brings great negative consequences, as it affects in large part the natuleza, causing great environmental damage and also represents a high risk to people’s health, which is why many nations like me do not tolerate this technique.

The fracking despite being a technique that seems promising for the extraction of oil and natural gas has too many environmental consequences such as: uncontrolled fracturing, earthquakes, considerable methane leaks, as well as deterioration of the well lining. That is why, I think it is better to study the technique otherwise it would not be good to apply it.

Fracking nowadays is a very polemic topic to talk about because of the considerable damage that it represents for the environment. Although the amount of people against that kind of methods to take advantage of the natural resources is increasing there are still lot of people in agreement with fracking due to the economical benefits for the big companies it is importan. Some of the most relevant consequences are the pollution of the hydrical resources, damaging the ground with several chemical componets which may have a negative impact in long term.
