Although I'm all for energy independence and the benefits of cheap energy I'm hesitant to think fracking's long term affects are worth it. This documentary does a decent job of depicting some bi-products of fracking.

Gasland is propaganda from one person (or groups) point of view. They definitely had an angle to push, and push it they did.

Not saying there aren't truths in the movie, but I've read enough on the background to know it was a movie with an agenda. The famous flammable tapwater, for example, is a naturally occuring phenomonen in many places.

Much more needs to be done on the studying of injecting the ground to see how this affects groundwater and ground stability. But fracking is not new - it's been around for a long time.
