Final Project Proposal: Fracking. Definition, Environmental Concerns, & Facts
Introduction to the Problem
Problem to be addressed. Everyone knows that the use of fossil fuels is the origin of a wide range of problems that plague the future of our society, its economy, and the environment. Not only have we built practically almost our entire economic system on a fossil pillar that is seeing its reserves diminish every second. This type of energy is damaging the environment in many ways —global warming, air pollution…— and causing numerous social conflicts. However, consuming it is not the only source of harmful effects for our planet, the mere fact of extracting these fossil fuels can sometimes cause irreparable damage to Mother Nature herself. A perfect piece of evidence is fracking, also known as hydraulic fracturing, an exploitation system that leaves its mark on our earth's crust.
According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, mounting evidence shows that it poses serious threats to our health, environment, and climate future. (Denchak, 2019)
Problem subtopic. Fracking, also known as hydraulic fracturing, is a fuel harvesting process in which sand, water, and chemicals are pumped underground through drilled wells. This high-pressure fluid fractures shale rock formations, allowing drilling companies to access large amounts of oil and gas trapped within the rock. (Independent Petroleum Association of America (IPAA), n.d.)
Although the extraction of these raw materials has meant an economic boom for the countries that apply this technique, it has had an environmental cost. In countries such as the United States and Great Britain, the controversy between defenders (who exalt its advantages as an economic-productive procedure) and detractors (who point to the environmental toll and the effects on the health of the local and territorial population of the geographical areas
involved) is permanent and sometimes involve national governments. (British Broadcasting Corporation, 2022)
Possible Causes and Maintaining Forces
Cause. The first of the consequences of fracking has to do with water. The hydraulic fracturing process requires large amounts of water. A 2015 US Geological Survey estimated that a single well can use between 2,600 m³ and 36,000 m³ of water per well. Wells that employ horizontal drilling in shale gas zones use the largest amounts of water to operate.
Once the water is used for fracturing, it becomes contaminated with the chemicals used for this process. Some fracking companies send this wastewater deep underground, where they believe it is too far away to affect drinking water quality. Other companies send the water to treatment plants for purification and reuse.
Unfortunately, fracturing fluids contain some known carcinogens and endocrine disruptors, and treatment plants do not always remove them succ.

The Pros and Cons of Fracking

Rasmussen College
Author’s Note:
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the two-sided debate of the Pros and Cons of Fracking. Written for Instructor Aisling Kane, on December 16, 2016 for course G328, Human Uses of the Environment.
The Pros and Cons of Fracking
The Controversy
Oil and natural gas are highly essential commodities since they provide energy (fuel and electric) to drive industrial machinery, light up houses, businesses and drive motors among other uses. Oil drilled from the underground is processed to produce petroleum products and diesel which are utilized in operating vehicle engines. Therefore, every country requires oil and gas to maintain continuous economic development as well as steadily increase its revenue and productivity. These products are garnered from underground rocks that require the use of technologically advanced and sophisticated machinery to drill very deep wells into the ground.
Fracking is a process used to extract natural gas and oil from shale rocks situated in great depths. This process incorporates the pumping of massive amounts of fluid with tremendously high pressure into the oil and gas- rich rocks. This research will offer detailed elucidations of information about fracking while reducing its advantages and disadvantages. Herein, a controversy arises between two adversary sides in which one side supports fracking while another opposes it by leaning on the disadvantageous realm of subject matter.
The reason as to why fracking has triggered hot debates on a global scale is that it is highly beneficial and efficient in obtaining vast amounts of oil and gas while at the same time constitutes hazardous effects on the environment and earth’s geography. For instance, fracking has been evidently proven to contribute significantly to earth tremors and quakes. On one side of the controversy, the environmentalists and geologists oppose fracking due to its adversity against the traditional livelihood of wildlife and humanity. They tend to value environmental wellness as an essential aspect than economic development which the other side dearly values.
The Major Players
The major players in this controversy are associated with the advantages and disadvantages of the fracking process and include individuals or parties which have differing ideologies about whether fracking is a good thing or not. The first side bases its arguments on the numerous benefits that fracking brings forth to a country. Some of these include the creation of more job opportunities and reduction in the price of energy. This prospect considers economic development as a highly important prerequisite that should be mandatorily adopted whenever necessary. This side incorporates economists, financial organizations, large corporations (governmental and non-government owned) and industrial sectors s ...

Climate Change All over the World .pptxsairaanwer024
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
2. NO TO FRACKING
Fracking is short for hydraulic fracturing, a process used to extract oil and natural
gas from historically inaccessible reservoirs.
Fracking has already spread in the global North, but in Latin America it is just
beginning. Governments are opening their doors to it without understanding its
impacts and risks, and without consulting affected communities. Many
communities are organizing to prevent or stop the impacts of fracking, which affect
their fundamental human rights. But in many cases they need technical and legal
support.

4. A straight well is drilled deep into the ground. The drilling then curves and rotates horizontally,
creating an L-shaped well. The fracking fluid — a mixture of water, chemicals, and sand — is
pumped into the well at very high pressure, fracturing the shale rock layers. above and below the well.
The gas or oil trapped in the rock rises to the surface along with the fluid.
Chemical soup - now also contaminated with heavy metals and even underground radioactive
elements - is frequently dumped into unlined ponds. It can seep into aquifers and overflow into
streams, poisoning water sources for people, agriculture, and livestock. Gas can also seep from
fractured rock into aquifers. As a result, the water flowing from household taps can catch fire. Other
documented damages include depletion of potable water supplies (by all fluid), air pollution from
drilling and pumping platforms, large methane emissions exacerbating global warming, earthquakes,
and health damages including cancer and defects. congenital.
5. Fracking technique is questioned for its environmental effects, since it can cause contamination of
underground aquifers, in addition to other effects derived from its application.
The Ministry of Mines and Energy of Colombia promulgated Decree No. 328 of 2020, which regulates the
implementation of pilot projects for the exploration of unconventional hydrocarbon deposits, to be
exploited through the fracking technique.
Colombia views with concern the reduction of the levels of its conventional deposits, which according to
calculations are exploitable for six years in the case of oil, and for nine years those of natural gas.
The fracking technique is questioned for its environmental effects, since it can cause contamination of
underground aquifers, in addition to other effects derived from its application.
The organization Colombia Libre de Fracking has already spoken out against decree 328, opposing the use
of hydraulic stimulation, even experimentally.
