Fracking is the process of extracting oil or natural gas from shale rock. Water, sand and chemicals are injected into the rock at high pressure which fractures the rock and allows the oil or gas to flow out to a well. While fracking has significantly boosted oil production, there are environmental concerns that the process is contaminating groundwater. Critics of fracking say it pollutes underground water supplies with chemicals, releases methane gas into the atmosphere, and can cause seismic activity. Proponents of fracking say it will drop oil and gas prices in Spain and lead to energy independence.

It is okay, although oversight should be increased, but these resources should regardless be replaced by sustainable sources such as nuclear.
@9LXVFS88mos8MO
No, firstly, more research is needed to measure the long-term effects of fracking and we should pursue more suitable energy resources instead.
@8Z7BLG33yrs3Y
No, but it should be legal
@8Z8BJMT3yrs3Y
only if its a last option
@8Z7FRJX3yrs3Y
I've heard fracking is bad but I know nothing about it.
@8Z3HNHV3yrs3Y
Yes it should be done, but it must be highly regulated and not done in a public environment. More use of solar farms is applicable.
@8Z28WVB3yrs3Y
No because you loose the top soil
@ISIDEWITH4yrs4Y
No it damages the top soil
