Episode 5

Episode 5: Stop the Fracking!You may have heard of fracking but not paid much attention to its implications. Hydraulic fracturing, commonly known as fracking, is a controversial method of extracting oil and natural gas from deep underground rock formations. This process involves injecting a high-pressure fluid composed of water, sand, and chemicals to create fractures in the rock, thereby releasing trapped resources. On this episode, host Robert Carillio engages with guest Lynn Anderson from Frackfree Mahoning to explore the damaging impacts of fracking on parks and natural environments across the nation. Lynn, along with numerous environmental advocates, has actively engaged with local and state officials in an effort to halt fracking and protect our natural resources. However, these efforts have often gone unheeded, leaving many concerned citizens frustrated with the lack of action.With support from Green Arenas, Lynn aims to raise awareness among listeners and inspire them to take action against the harmful effects of fracking. Join us as we delve into this critical issue and learn how we can collectively work to safeguard our environment.Check this episode of Green Arenas on our website at ⁠www.greenarenaspod.com⁠Follow Green Arenas on ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠Green Arenas is an ⁠⁠⁠⁠Inquisitor Media⁠⁠ Original
