> How close is too close to live to a large fracking operation? Yes. As you can imagine there's not a lot of work on that, since that's a very profitable industry with a lot of reach. But here's something: Meng, Q. (2015). Spatial analysis of environment and population at risk of natural gas fracking in the state of Pennsylvania, USA. Science of the Total Environment, 515, 198-206. > The high, moderate, and low risk levels are defined
according to distances less than 1 km, 1 to 2 km, and 2 to 3 km to
fracking wells. The sciencedirect article is abridged, but scihub has a copy. Then you might want to check through the papers that cite it: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?cites=1835293133068512810... But these stood out: Meng, Q. (2017). The impacts of fracking on the environment: A total environmental study paradigm. Science of the Total Environment, 580, 953-957. Chowkwanyun, M. (2023). Environmental justice: where it has been, and where it might be going. Annual Review of Public Health, 44, 93-111. Lu, H., Kang, Y., Liu, L., & Li, J. (2019).
