Where is fracking locate?
Fracking is done all over the world.
What is fracking used for?
Fracking is a way of obtaining gas from rocks underground
Can fracking cause tornadoes?
Fracking does not directly cause tornadoes. Tornado formation is primarily influenced by atmospheric conditions such as temperature, humidity, and wind patterns. However, some studies suggest that injecting wastewater from fracking into deep wells may induce seismic activity, which could theoretically affect local geology and weather patterns, though this connection is not well-established.
What are the controversies around fracking?
Water pollution is the major controversy that surrounds fracking.
Can fracking harm the water supply?
Fracking can potentially harm the water supply due to the possibility of leaks and spills of chemicals used in the fracking process. There is also a risk of groundwater contamination from the chemicals and gases released during the fracking process. However, with proper regulations and monitoring, these risks can be minimized.
Why do companies use fracking?
Fracking is a comparatively cheap method for obtaining oil and natural gas.
What are better words to use for the most important?

What are the positives of fracking?
Well simply it is a new source of oil/gas, that we have plenty of. It will mean that when we run out of oil from traps (the current way to get oil) we will have enough oil and gas to last us another 50 or more years (this is an estimate and to be truthful we still have know idea how much oil is available from fracking). Fracking will open up a load of new jobs. However this will just replace the old jobs of conventional oil/gas extraction. At first fracking will make oil and gas cheaper in the market. This is because if there is more oil there is less demand for it so prices go down. However when oil from fracking runs out, then we will be back at the same step as we are now. Fracking is not as bad as people make it out to be - if it is monitored and regulated. The only problem is who is going to do that, because at the moment it is done by the fracking companies. Do we know if they are telling the truth? For them profit is more important than the environment. However in my opinion I am still against fracking. And it is not water pollution and earthquakes that bother me but the environmental horizon if we choose to take the path of fracking (continuing to do fracking in America or starting to frack in the UK). The oil and gas from fracking is the same as it is from conventional oil extraction methods. I believe that fracking will become another excuse to look away from turning to eco-friendly energy sources. Fracking may become another short term cop-out for the government's energy crisis but in the long term it is just destroying the environment with global warming. Sorry if the last question was off topic but I wanted to give another view to the truth of fracking.
When did fracking start?
In the late 1940 Standard Oil began early experiments with Fracking in Oklahoma and Texas.
What is fracking machine?

How deep do the fracking wells go?
Fracking originally started in the 1940s. There is no known distance that s for sure on how far fracking wells go. It is basically that they go down as far as they need to to get oil out of a well underground.
What is the effects of fracking?
Fracking, which is the process of pumping an agent into a well under pressure, is not performed correctly there is a possibility of contamination of the ground water.
