  • Well just keep on fracking. Soon your ground water will be as contaminated as here in southwestern PA.😢
  • @emmiestacy
    Also way more quakes than they are reporting
  • I've lived in Texas for 24 years and these large swarms have never happened during that time. Something is going on

    My daughter won a science fair years ago as we created a small mock fracking system and showed how there is no way from keeping it from contaminating ground water. Fracking also causes earthquakes. There is definitely a fine line between energy needs and pollution. For those who love solar panels, wind farms, and electric power with batteries I would really study up on the detrimental effects of that also. The only clean energy is biking, paddling, etc. I don't think anyone wants to do that all the time so here we are.

    I live on the Woodbine fault. The limestone bedrock 5 ft below on which the piers of my house rest always rumbles.

    Fracking does real damage to the sediment beds. We knew that when we started though, just don't build cities out there ever.
  • @meg5450
    I live by Dallas and I haven't felt anything.

    Call Rex Tillerson... he was ex-CEO of Exxon (who long-denied fracking dangers), and he filed suit to stop fracking near his McKinney ranch. That was granted. But no one else's. Only GOPee Rex as he became a trump's secretary of energy.
