Oil Fracking

Obtain underground trapped oil deposits in US

Oil is trapped between porus rocks, IE: Shale rock

US likes oil...

Drilling operation

Pump chemically treated water into underground deposits to open up pores, pump oil out

Environment: we pump chemicals into ground... we get our water from ground... would you drink water from there?

Wisconsin is a major fracking sand supplier. Lots of money for the State. Is that okay to be supplying the means of a potentially harmful industry?
