Fracking Reality Check
November 17, 2011 | 3 Comments
Many people, the media and press included, are getting progressively more misinformed about oil and gas field reservoir fracturing. So lets have a big picture review of what the situation is before making silly conclusions. Petroleum field hydraulic fracturing is simply forcing fluids and tiny sand sized solids into cracks the pressure creates. Fracking can […]
