Natural Gas Hydraulic Fracturing

In this day and age we rely on gas and other natural resources to do the things that we need to do.  Most people can never imagine a life without gas or natural resource, however as technology progresses we change the way we do things and sometimes it not the best. for example every presidency the president running or currently running always brings up that we need to rely less on foreign oil and gas. However it never happens. People cannot imagine living in a world with out gas therefor we need to always provide it. As we progress with technology as stated previously sometimes we invent something that can hurt us, In this instance a way of extracting gas from the earth is Hydraulic Fracturing, What Hydraulic Fracturing is, is process where chemicals are used to break threw rock and extract maximum product. All in all it is a extremely effective process however their is a huge downside. The chemicals can be leaked to underground water sources and also distribute threw land and into air. What should be done is further research, for example altering chemicals or trying to contain them. Apart from the bad part many people beleve that Hydraulic Fracturing is the way to a more clean energy future.
