The Fracking Science Compendium, Ninth Edition, released last month, compiles data and conclusions from thousands of studies, including peer-reviewed papers, investigative media reports and government documents.
The human and environmental health risks associated with hydraulic fracturing, commonly known as fracking, are “real and growing,” according to a new report synthesizing nearly a decade of research.
The Fracking Science Compendium, Ninth Edition, was released in October by Concerned Health Professionals of New York and Physicians for Social Responsibility and adds to evidence of numerous problems posed by natural gas extraction through fracking and fracking-associated infrastructure, from pipelines and compressor stations to appliances such as gas furnaces and stoves.
The report compiles data and conclusions from thousands of studies, including peer-reviewed papers, investigative media reports and government documents.
