Except without any regulation or enforcement there is no incentive or companies to care about the environmental impact.

So yes, if you do fracking nicely and care about the impact then there is no problem. The reality is that no one involved in fracking cares and it's all about the bottom line so screw the environment.

But yes, it's totally safe otherwise.

I specifically said, "and regulated to enforce it".

That is not the reality, and I challenge you to demonstrate that.
