There seems to be no middle ground in the hydraulic fracturing debate ‐ that's fracking to you media‐savvy readers. Here are some sample headlines ‐ Water Scarcity Concerns Grow From Use of Fracking; Scientists: Fracking Wastewater Poses Threat To Drinking Water; and my personal favorite, Fracking Advocates Allegedly Get Homeless People To Pose As Shale Supporters. And who hasn't seen the YouTube video of the guy lighting his kitchen tap on fire (1.3 million views). On the other side, the oil and gas industry points out that we have actually been fracking for many decades and that there have not been the widespread problems that its opponents fear or claim.
