fafa's right..
it's a great movie btw..
What do I think? Anything venture that would request and receive a waiver of EPA requirements (From Dubya, of course) has to know beforehand how dangerous that operation would be to the American people.
it's worse than that, they are exempt from the safe water act.. imagine that... and those 'exemptions' have been called the 'haliburton loophole'(per the loophole in 2005 Energy Policy Act and since they coined the technology and are one of 3 largest frackers).... which means 'frackers' and really any oil and gas agency, are (the only agencies) allowed by the EPA to 'inject' hazardous material in and around our water supply..
woo hoo...
but hey, like Mike said..
Fracking does mess up ground water, but with hydrocarbons that are already there and at a depth way below the aquifer levels of well or drinking water. So that doesn't effect what we drink.he just didn't answer if he'd want then them 'fracking' next to his and his families drinking supply.. I guess he'd probably want to know what was in the fracking fluid, besides all those good hydrocarbons that are already there, first... but hey, they don't have to tell us that so we can never know... how refreshing!
let's forget it takes billions of gallons of fresh water to do this.. and water is 'trucked' in with hundreds of huge water trucks.. so how much 'enegry' are we expending to get this 'new energy' source? or does that matter when it's gas/oil? I mean, I know it matter when it's 'green' energy like windmills, so I can only assume it matters here?
and that water, after it's contaminated, is pumped back into the ground.. which caused a massive rise in earthquakes..hell we know those aren't dangerous at all. just ask Japan.
but in the end.. like mike says...of course it messes up the water, but it doesn't effect us,.. and hey we can trust haliburton anyway..*rollseyes*
