Shouldn't we be seeing wide-scale, obvious signs of environment destruction consider how many barrels a day the US produces? Maybe it is not covered well by the news, but do you have any sources for major environmental destruction?



I did not say or believe that fracking causes no harm to the environment, just at the scale fracking is done at there would be more than minor incidents, there would be mass devastation wherever fracking was taking place. Most of these issues are fracking be done too close to underground water reservoirs.
