Research Paper Final Draft on fracking
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.
