But out of all of that, 99.5% of that fluid is non-toxic and the other .5% could be a variety of chemicals, some of which would have no harm on any living creature on this planet.
Yes, it does need to be monitored because there are instances when toxins are used (but again, in a very small percentage), but I don't get why it is made out to be such a scary technique when, for the most part, is relatively harmless.
Watching a pro-environment, anti-oil documentary will obviously have an agenda...

100% agree. That fracking debacle of a movie by Matt Damon had to be rewritten 5 times because of all the BS info they were spewing
