Yes, but increase regulation and oversight, and provide more scientific research to measure the effects it has, short and long-term, on us and to the environment. However, if the problem keeps getting worse, then phase it out and move towards better energy sources, such as nuclear and renewable energy.

How would you feel if a fracking site was set up near your community, and what concerns or benefits come to mind?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

Have you or someone you know experienced any direct impact from fracking, and if so, what was that impact?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

What values or priorities do you think should guide our energy production choices in the face of climate change and why?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

Considering the global demand for energy, how do you balance the need for oil and gas with the potential risks to the environment?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

How do you envision the ideal energy future, and what role does non-renewable energy play in that vision?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

If you had to choose between lower energy costs or environmental protection, which would you pick, and what informs your decision?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

What is a change you would be willing to make to your current lifestyle if it meant reducing the negative impacts of energy extraction?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

Do you think technological advancements can make fracking safer and more environmentally friendly, or should we focus on alternative resources?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

If a friend argued that fracking is essential for economic growth, how would you respond, considering both the environment and job creation?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

Can you think of a time when an environmental issue affected your life or that of your community, and how does that influence your view on fracking?

 @8RJFWXBanswered…4yrs4Y

No, we should use our resources to research sources of energy such as fusion

 @8FDNNMS from Louisiana  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8D9HP69answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, natural gas is much better for both the economy and the environment than coal and oil.

  Deletedanswered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but increase oversight to avoid oil spills, and find a way to continue the process in such a way where it possess no threat to the environment.

Yes, but more oversight and rigorous following of safety procedures is needed to prevent and manage the risk of accidents that could cause harm, since fracking leads to environmental or health issues. There should be more research to measure the effects it has on the environment, and on human health.

  Deletedanswered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but with more oversight and rigorous adherences to safety procedures to prevent accidents that could cause harm, since fracking leads to environmental or health issues. There should be more research to measure the effects it has on the environment, and on human health.

 @8QKJ7R9 from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

No, fracking uses fabric softener and other chemicals harmful to the wildlife

  @4SKVPWDanswered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but the industry needs to find safety ways to use this technology.

 @8QG5XSM from Indiana  answered…4yrs4Y

 @3B3DJJLanswered…4yrs4Y

No, we should pursue more sustainable energy resources, especially nuclear

 @8RBQDDP from Vermont  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, as long as it is done in safe ways that does not harm the environment

 @8QQ5NLZ from Indiana  answered…3yrs3Y

No, research has concluded that fracking is harmful to the population and environment

 @8SF6R49 from New York  answered…4yrs4Y

I do not think fossil fuels are good, but so many people have jobs in fossil fuels.

 @92JXK3J from New York  answered…2yrs2Y

In the short term, but begin to slowly transition to cleaner alternatives.

 @8PK69PX from Washington  answered…4yrs4Y

Companies should be able to decide what path is best for them and the government should not be involved at all.

 @8HJP9WN from Idaho  answered…4yrs4Y

No, we know enough about its effects on climate and our environment that it shouldn't be allowed.

 @8SMKCCQ from Oklahoma  answered…4yrs4Y

It has a place in our world whether we like it or not, it's too big to fail

 @8KX67Q9 from California  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but not new permissions on federal land and we should incentivize alternate energy resources.

  @DsInferno from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

For the moment yes but, phase it out in favor of sustainable energy sources

 @6LV5ZML from Washington  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but only in areas where it is deemed low-risk to the population and environment.

 @7NHW7HN from Connecticut  answered…3yrs3Y

 @75KRFBJ from Nebraska  answered…4yrs4Y

 @7PTCG38 from Wisconsin  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but only with increased oversight and not in heavily populated areas

 @86LT58K from California  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but apply appropriate oversight, no subsidies, and mandate cost of energy = cost to produce energy + cost to environment/cleanup .

 @86NBM3N from New York  answered…4yrs4Y

 @89CY647 from Arizona  answered…4yrs4Y

 @7PTCG38 from Wisconsin  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but not in heavily populated areas and continue to pursue more sustainable energy resources.

 @7PTCG38 from Wisconsin  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but not in heavily populated areas and oversight should be increased.

 @8F3TJ7L from Utah  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8FG75SF from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, we should pursue more sustainable energy resources instead, but so long as oversight is increased it is a practical way to produce energy.

 @8HJ6ZY7 from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

Not in the long run but temporarily until we can get more nuclear and renewable generation facilities reliably online without intermittency in the case of renewables

 @8HKVTKT from Minnesota  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8HQTH28 from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8JXC6F8 from California  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8JZHKVX from Mississippi  answered…4yrs4Y

While this process currently has a merit to society, I believe we should take measures to distance ourselves from the process at large. An emphasis on renewables and nuclear energy should be society's goal going forward.

 @8QM9QMR from North Carolina  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8NXSCW2 from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, with the condition that we are actively moving towards renewable energy.

 @8PD23XN from Missouri  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but increase oversight and use it only when absolutely necessary, we need to get closer to being 100% green energy.

 @8PMF46F from Ohio  answered…4yrs4Y

No, we should pursue more sustainable energy resources and conduct research to measure the long-term effects of domestic fracking

 @8PJHVJN from Pennsylvania  answered…4yrs4Y

 @TogetherinSoli1 from GU  answered…4yrs4Y

No, the importance of fossil fuels in today's society should be recognised, but we should move towards more sustainable energy

 @8R8DHKJ from Georgia  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8RPZ3MP from Maryland  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but we should invest in more environmentally friendly energy sources such as nuclear energy instead

 @8TFWF2Z from Michigan  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but we should pursue more sustainable energy resources with a goal of eventually transitioning away from this practice

 @WolferusYT from Michigan  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but we should be working towards cleaner energy resources in order to eventually eliminate the need for it.

 @8WWSZZX from Florida  answered…3yrs3Y

 @8XWRJ7H from South Carolina  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but regulations and oversight should be put in place to make sure that the environment and wildlife are not harmed.
