I'm talking about the use of water in fracking and the contamination of ground water from it.
Well I just spent 20 minutes reading about it. Right off the top, I can't see what the problem really is, I suppose I have to study some more. But first off, I don't see a real problem with
ground water and Natural gas mixing, I think that happens naturally all the time. Second, I don't see how someone's water faucet start suddenly emitting gas. I can't imagine how that could happen with my well and if it happens with a City water supply, something is dreadfully wrong with the water system. Natural gas is lighter than air, so what's it doing in water long enough to
get into a pump intake?
I can't find any real sites where any of this has happened, seems like baloney to me. Sulfur in the water, now that's a different problem. My neighbor accoss the street has sulfur/iron in the water,
damn does that stink. But they take it out with a water softener.
