I am yet to be convinced that fracking is neutral to environment and will be beneficial to USA in long term... and am certainly against fracking in OZ... there is a lot of hot air about the gas here and how the exploration and fracking would improve the availability... but it won't as it was political stuff up... we have the most of gas resources in the world and probably the highest prices of gas in the world... due to obvious reasons...

Fracking pollutes our air and drinking water, hurts communities, worsens climate change, and is linked to earthquakes. It is unacceptable that the oil and gas industry profits off fracking at our expense. It's time to say no to fracking, and yes to clean, renewable energy.
Other Environmental Concerns. In addition to air and water pollution, fracking also increases the potential for oil spills, which can harm the soil and surrounding vegetation. Fracking may cause earthquakes due to the high pressure used to extract oil and gas from rock and the storage of excess wastewater on site.Jul 16, 2018
