Fracking explained: opportunity or danger
Economy | Information | History | Online | Facts | World | Global | Money
Fracking explained in five minutes. Fracking is a controversial topic. On the one side the gas drilling companies, on the other citizen opposed to this drilling method. Politicians are also divided on the matter. We try to take a neutral look on fracking. It is relevant for all of us, because of high prices for energy and the danger for our drinking water. This video focuses mostly on the debate currently ongoing in europe. In a lot of european countries there is a public outcry against fracking, espacially in germany. But the facts in this video are relevant to all of us. Short videos, explaining things. For example Evolution, the Universe, Stock Market or controversial topics like Fracking. Because we love science. We would love to interact more with you, our viewers to figure out what topics you want to see.

There is only one problem with the Kurzgesagt channel - IT'S NOT THE NUMBER ONE CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE!

Look at all these people paid by oil companies trying to defend drilling and fracking. Shame.

they few elite people that will mostly benefit for this will endure several generations of suffering .. universal law .. you take everything without thought of any consequence to others, the universe with take everything from you .. even your soul!

These fracking puns. They are not fracking funny.
-
Nice video but it didn't explain a fundamental concept. What are we doing exactly by drilling these holes? Is there air trapped between the rocks that we are trying to capture? Or was it the fracking ingredients themselves that have a chemical reaction underground leading to "natural gas"?

So... can't wait for solar and wind to kick oil in the teeth.

"Hey John! Let's pump poison into the ground for resources and leave it there to seep throughout the ground!"
"Great idea, Bill!" -
Question: Why do we put the toxic fracking water BACK in the hole after sucking it out? Couldn't we just not do that?

This is the single most destructive procedure we can do. Future generations will suffer greatly due to this Corporate greed they are single handedly permanently poisoning underground water supply's. Just look at the rivers not even 100 years ago nation wide that have PCP's and have a chemical odor to this day from Manufacturing in the 1920's to the 1990's and some still secretly dump in rivers in our day . Look at the Colorado River just 3 years ago when if all people the Environmental Protection Agency pumped out an old mine making the river red for months all because they didn't realize it was gonna do that all the standing polluted chemical pools from mining gold or whatever they were doing. This shit has got to stop what are we going to leave to these next generations the kid that 2 or the mother that's about to give birth for fucks sake they're not even born yet and their in debt $ 40 thousand dollars because of the scumbag Federal reserve this is ((((((SICK, SICK,SICK)))))........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
