From the article below: ...It was confessed that very little is known about the potential health and environmental effects associated with the nearly 200 chemicals used to crack geological formations in the ground, releasing profitable natural oil and gas. Almost nothing is known about one-third of the compounds. Eight of them are toxic to mammals, according to Stringfellow...... .....Industry spokespeople have insisted that fracking is completely safe despite a lack of research dedicated to the long-term effects on people and the planet. The industrial side was saying, Were just using food additives, basically making ice cream here, said Stringfellow..... ************** Indeed, how many of you have heard the industry sponsored commercials ? Some of which say, in effect: we use common household chemicals and even ingredients used in ice cream .... which certainly would suggest to the public that fracking chemicals are benign. Well the guar gum coming from a bean may indeed be a harmless additive. Its the thickening agent used in ice cream that is also used as a thickening agent in the chemical laden frack fluid) BUT if fracking is so safe why cant they just give the public the entire list of ingredients??!!! Not just the edible ones? Many people are starting to ask these questions, and thankfully, the research community is starting to look much closer these days into finding out whats in these recipes being used in frack fluid. naturalnews/046573_fracking_fluids_toxic_chemicals_health_effects.html7.1
