Scientific American, 2011
The article discusses hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking, a method used to harvest natural gas from shale layers, and examines the possibility that fracking can pollute drinking water. Horizontal fracking, which is done using large amounts of water and chemicals, is being researched by scientists and engineers such as Anthony Ingraffea as a ...
