Fracking

Democracy Now! reports on the controversial oil and gas extraction hydraulic fracturing process, known as fracking. The practice involves blasting sand, water and toxic chemicals deep into shale rock to release oil and gas, a process which can contaminate water supplies and pollute the air. Many communities are concerned about adverse public health effects for people that live near fracking sites.
