the basic verb of "fracking" - a synonym for hydraulic fracturing. This is a form of natural gas extraction that consistently pollutes drinking water around drilling sites. This method was featured in the 2011 Oscar-nominated documentary "Gasland". The film follows the destructive path of fracking and the devastating health effects on local residents and damage to the environment. In one iconic image, a man is able to turn on his kitchen faucet, hold a lighter next to the running water, and the water explodes into flames.
Natural gas companies mislead the public and promote their product as "clean energy".
