After watching the film Gaslands, fracking should leave you scared. It paints fracking as a greed driven, accident waiting to happen.

It's a movie filled with lies and shouldn't be taken as a serious documentary.

For instance when the guy sets fire to gas coming out of his tap it is assumed that it is caused by fracking, but the movie doesn't tell you that these things happen naturally also in areas without any gas drilling.

Take a look at this video: http://www.fightgaslandcensorship.com/


There are lots of independent sources that back up the details presented in the film:

Also if the fracking process is so safe why did they have ask for and get special exemption from the Safe Drinking Water Act?
