Fracking News

All that fracking sand everywhere is unhealthy

December 14, 2009 By TXsharon

All that fracking sand flying around in the air can cause serious lung damage. I’ve taken videos of the stuff whirling around during hydraulic fracturing. There’s no telling what might be mixed in with it.

Several months ago we learned they use radioactive markers in sand to track the fractures.

Just last week we learned they mix freaking asbestos in the fracking sand.

Now they have a sand plant in Fort Worth and the sand blows around the neighbors which they think is a nuisance. But the real problem is the serious lung damage caused by breathing sand.
