Big Questions

Big Questions:

1. With all of the reports and documentaries on hydrofracking and how it affects drinking water along with other issues, why would there still be a push for fracking?

2. There is a strong support for fracking by New York farmers. Isn't there a concern that fracking will contaminate the water they may be using for their crops?

3. Fracking is being seen as a quick fix for the financial struggles of farmers, but isn't that a little short sighted? What will farmers then do when the gasoline runs out?

4. What are the best alternatives to fracking? Which alternative energy sources could benefit these farmers and keep their businesses alive?
