"It's Time For The Facts On Fracking

American Energy Independence Is Within Our Grasp

You've probably heard of "fracking," or more accurately, hydraulic fracturing.  It's the practice of using pressurized water to "fracture" rock deep below the earth's surface, creating tiny cracks that allow oil and natural gas to flow freely. You've probably also heard that it causes an array of environmental issues – from burning tap water to mysterious earthquakes. Unfortunately, what you haven't heard are the facts.

The fact that hydraulic fracturing holds the key to an independent energy future for our country. The fact that it provides a clean-burning, reliable source of energy that heats our homes, powers our industries and helps create items that we use every single day. The fact that there have been no proven incidences of gas migration into water sources anywhere in the country.

Fracking has become an easy target for pop culture and the media through the lack of factual information available to the public. We want that to change. Which is why we made DOWN DEEP. We hope you will consider the facts that it presents - and please, share it with others."
