Fracking: A Key to Energy Independence?
The world has an increasing population and energy needs to be produced to support each and every one. United States of America has taken several steps into making the access to this resource at an effective cost and cleanest way possible. Coal plants and nuclear plants have been the way to go for a long time. Recently such tragedies that happened in Japan with nuclear power plants and coal mining in Virginia interfering with health and polluting the atmosphere had seen the Obama administration try to cut back on those sources of energy. Fracking was heavily supported by majority until its side effects were noticed.
The writer’s purpose is to bring awareness on the negative effects fracking has on society.
