Move to Ban Fracking Now

This bill aims to ban the fuel extraction method commonly known as "fracking" or hydraulic fracturing.

Hydraulic fracturing is a well stimulation technique in which rock is fractured by a pressurized liquid. The process involves the high-pressure injection of 'fracking fluid' into a wellbore to create cracks in the deep-rock formations through which natural gas, petroleum, and brine will flow more freely.

This process can be potentially harmful allowing poisonous chemicals and other hazardous material into groundwater supplies and also raises serious environmental concerns.
