Hydrofracking
Hydrofracking is a way businesses can cheaply extract natural gases but in order to do so it causes major negative impacts in ground water quality which includes flammable water and waste in our drinking water. It also pours chemicals into the water supply that make it toxic to drink and it runoffs into lakes and soaks into the ground
