Ban Hydraulic Fracking (Aff.) Only2% of the U.S. natural gas supply in 2000; it was 37% in 2012. This U.S. energy boom comes largely thanks to the technology of "fracking," or hydraulic fracturing, coupled with horizontal drilling methods that allow for much faster, more efficient extraction of oil and natural gas. But the question is, is fracking justified? I stand here today to state that it is not. Therefore, I asked that the house vote in affirmation to this bill. Many fracking additives are toxic, carcinogenic or mutagenic and many are kept secret. In the United States, such secrecy has been abetted by the 2005 ?Halliburton loophole,' which exempts fracking from many of the nation?s major federal environmental-protection laws, including the Safe Drinking Water Act...

COAL, OIL, & GAS Stats from Geohive: US total energy consumption ? ranked 1st worldwide US oil consumption ? ranked 1st worldwide US coal consumption ? ranked 2nd worldwide (behind China) US natural gas consumption ? ranked 1st worldwide I. Oil (15-6) Most important fossil fuel in US economy: used mostly for transportation A. Petroleum or crude oil (oil as comes out of ground) 1.Produced by decomposition of deeply buried dead organic matter from plants and animals under high temperatures and pressures over millions of years 2.Consists mainly of hydrocarbons, with small amounts of sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen impurities 3.Often trapped with natural gas 4.In pores and cracks in rocks, if enough pressure create a gusher when drill B.

APES Mathematics Review The APES Examination will require you to do mathematical calculations. Occasionally these calculations may be somewhat esoteric, and you may find it possible to do them in your head; nonetheless, it is mandatory to show all work for all calculations on the free-response section of the APES exam. This worksheet is designed help to prepare you for the type of calculations you may encounter on this year?s APES exam. Use a separate piece of paper, and for each problem, show every step of your work, and indicate the cancellation of all units?No Calculators!! Scientific Notation?All APES students should be able to work comfortably with numbers in scientific notation. ? Place the following numbers into scientific notation. 1. one billion

Parker Bell English Period 7 Research Paper: Fracking Hydraulic fracking, or fracking, is a process of extracting oil and natural gas from deep underground shale formations. These resources accessed by fracking could not be accessed by any other available method currently known, making it a very important practice for all drilling companies. However, it has still received heavy public criticism for its impact on the environment. This paper will argue that, although it may cause some environmental damage, fracking is a necessary evil so that companies can fully use the oil and natural gas rigs that they already have in place.
