It’s a “FALSE ISSUE” that the COMMUNISTS are trying to sell.

The we need to drill. Libtards are on the side of whatever makes the nation weaker and more vulnerable.

More media “creating the narrative.”

Fracking takes place thousands of feet underground. Any community using underground well or aquifer water is pumping it from 50-200 feet underground. They are completely different spaces.

Its like asking “cars - are they are danger to airplanes?”

Any leakage of gas or the small amount of chemicals used happens from faulty well-bores or piping on the way up. In that case, it has nothing to do with the process of “tracking” - simply the quality of the pipe and seals on the well.

The Third option is frack and have all the fresh clean water you want. Because this is all leftist Bull Pucky.

The well water near Ft Hood tasted like crap for years, and there were never any wells drilled or fracked in that area. The closest is probably 60 miles away on the east side of IH 35.

Fracking causes well contaminate is just a red herring. The real argument is about whether humans should be allowed to exist via exploitation of natural resources.

1. If fracking were to entirely cease today there would be no additional freshwater available to these people. The enviros want us to have neither oil/gas or water. California is the perfect example were the enviers are driving people out by drying the state up by creating an artificial scarcity of water.

2. Oil and water are commingled naturally in many areas. In the Akron area I have friends who tell of water naturally contaminated by oil.
the situations is remedied by lowering (i.e. pumping) oil out of the ground. Ditto many areas around the Gulf.

3. Drilling and pumping ground water is just as evil (in the enviro wackos eyes) as drilling and pumping for oil/gas. Both are done to support humans which need to ne scourged from the Earth.

Was the “water scarcity” around the shale deposits a fact before the evil fracking started? Not a geologist, but isn’t that sort of normal around shale deposits?

If there are chemicals in the waste water, bet the thermal depolymerization folks could fix that, and bring some benefit to the process.

“...so fracking thirsty...”
