Look up information about fracking (short for hydraulic fracturing) as a method to extract oil and gas, how and when it got started, how it is regulated, what role it plays in our continued dependence on fossil fuels, what are the environmental consequences of fracking on our air and water quality, wild places and climate.
Take a look at the proposed fracking in Florida, its effects on our water supply, air quality, Everglades, and discuss the implications of allowing fracking to our way of life in South Florida in the context of the Climate Emergency.
