Fracking is the process to which sand,water and chemicals are blasted deep underground in order to extract shale gas.The number of wells required in the most likely beautiful countryside would be between ten and twenty thousand wells according to a report from bloomberg. These would be in groups of six to ten called'drilling pads' so you can imagine the eye sore from the get go.Also it could destroy our water supplys making them polluted and dirty if something does go wrong on a drilling site. Yes this is cheap energy but is it really worth the risk of destroying our climate further more no.
