hydrofracking

[ericadawn16]

"Advances in horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing technologies have helped to increase our total natural gas resources by almost 50 percent over the past decade and it is estimated that by the year 2035, over a quarter of our natural gas production will come from shale gas, and the primary method of collection will be hydrofracking."

Not everyone has city water, when people talk about it getting into their water, they mean it has seeped into their well water which they use for all their water needs like drinking, cooking, bathing and the toilet.

To me, it reminds me a lot of the car industry. The car industry did half-hearted attempts for decades at making more efficient cars using other sources like electricity or solar power or hydrogen but didn't actually really try until people stopped buying cars and we had to bail them out.

Yes, solar power has significantly improved. If we put solar panels on every government-owned building that wasn't to be kept historically accurate, think how much money that could save and how much reserve energy that could create. The majority of those with solar panels end up creating far more energy than they require. However, the electric companies hate this. They want people dependent on them.

Thus, it doesn't happen because big business keeps us backwards just like Satellite 5.
