    what we do to the earth we do to ourselves

    FACT: Hydraulic fracking has been performed over 1 million times without a SINGLE case of ground water contamination.FACT: EPA studied chemicals in fracking fluid and determined it was safe.FACT: You can be forced into a production unit, but they can’t force their way onto your surface if you own the minerals.Slick video, crying people, and shocking claims, but at the end of the day, the FACTS disprove this whole clip.

    @Smokie1775 , you don’t know what you’re talking about. There are many cases of groundwaterand wellwater polution. There are also cases of near death sickness from fracing. But then of course, you’d have to read some to know that. Obviously you don’t do much of that.

    I would say that fracking pollution has never been substantiated because we’re not able to pin a particular company with particular chemicals because they are exempt from reporting and the EPA is not authorized to investigate. That is kind of a point of the film, if you’d watch the whole thing. It would be a step in the right direction to put fracking back under the Clean Water Act.

    When provable problems arrise from fracking and drilling in general, the companies will pay out in pre-trial leagal settlements, and buy the landowners silence. Toxins do not respect property boundaries;they whaft and leak down to neighbor’s lands- lastly, even if you own 100 percent of your mineral rights, yes, you can be incorporated into a drilling unit. Many problems related to frac mishaps continue – across the country, and will likely grow in number.

    These environmentalists dont want the EPA to regulate fracking, they want the EPA to ban it. They just wont say that because we would think they were crazy wanting to ban frakcing considering about 98% of all natural gas wells are fracked these days. Good policy.Im ready to sign up for my tent, horse, and eat nuts and berries the rest of my life, how about you?

    @Smokie1775 You wouldn’t have a clue how to source healthy food for yourself. Just like the corporations for decades told the world tobacco was safe, the gas industry is trying to do the same. This will get shut down. Bet on it.

    Fact: There is not a SINGLE substantiated case of fracking fluids entering a water source. Drilling at 10,000 ft doesn’t affect water aquifers at 250 ft. Showing people crying about not owning their mineral rights is just to take us away from the facts that the crying people bought the property without the mineral rights. You don’t truly own your property unless you own/control the minerals rights.

    what a load of nonsense! I breath air walking down the street; pollution from cars cause disease thus ban all cars?!? How ridiculous! Maybe if you suck on the gas seeps for an hour a day, then one might feel sick or die, but otherwise the films connecting rational is a load of hooky. Gas and oil seeps happen naturally by the way. No complaints there. I agree though, drilling on top of those folks was wrong, there should be a 1000 foot buffer zone minimum.

    Have’nt yet seen enough of this flawed coincidence equals causation logic? Find a few egregious offenders, find alledged victims and voila you got grade A demagoguery.
