process fracking is just a short word for fracturing hydraulic fracturing or fracking as it's commonly called is a drilling technique first commercialised by how the burden in one nine hundred forty nine comes in with very high powered water and sand and a slightly soapy mixture and all it does is it goes down and it just fractures a little tiny fractures in the rock and then sand goes into those fractures and allows that gas to escape. and then the gas flows in to the pipe up to the surface in the people's homes. hydraulic fracturing is largely responsible for the domestic drilling boom because of its high cost it was not widely used until recently in the one nine hundred ninety s. when the price of natural gas shot up high enough to make it affordable this is here in the reserve pits here don't to see zero colborne is one of the world's leading authorities on endor current disrupting chemicals in the environment and their impact on humans down in here the trucks are coming all the way which is thirty miles to hear of she has been studying the chemicals used by the industry for drilli

we have to have it if you are talking about fracking. at that same time, the government has to be a supporter and in every way possible have to limit the burden of red tape or excessive regulation. that is -- that is the message. we are in every community, we have certain tribal leadership. many do give back and recognize it is not all about their narrow self-interest. what are those ways that we can accelerate this international job and make sure our grandkids and their grandkids have the same type of tauruses we have? >> if you want to check on the governor's history of innovation, you should google his name and the running of the pigs.

>> right, ye, fracking, the development of fracking combined in the case of many of these resources with horizontal drilling that allows for them to develop resources where they previously hadn't thought that they economically could do so. what those two technologies involved mean together is significant amounts of water usage, significant generation of waste waters, generation of air pollution, lots of traditional pollution, significant amount of water involved in fracking translate into hundreds of truck trips for every well pad. those in turn turn into not only air quality impacts but impacts to quality of life, the kinds of things that we saw in a clip from one of the segments earlier this week. we're grappling with some really serious issues now, issues the industry itself is acknowledging present real problems, waste water being a key example. the wurt that-- waste water generated through the extraction of gas using the fracking process is heavily contaminated, both with chemicals used as part of the fracking process itself as well as with natural occurring contaminants which inclu

access to the oil is only possible through the controversial process known as fracking, which uses a combination of water and chemicals. environmentalists condemn it and say it poisons the ground. drilling oil is hard work. 18-hour days. three weeks on end in two weeks off. there's not much out there in the open space of north dakota for distractions. workers here are focused on what they can burn. >> when we look economically, there is a sacrifice that needs to be taken to support my family to keep them alive. there is not a lot of work back there. i feel like a pioneer. >> i have a wife and four key kids, pretty much watching my two-year-old grow up in pictures. somebody has got to pay the bills. >> the cost of living here has exploded. housing is tight. some workers sleep in cabins next to the oilfield, but having a job is more important than being comfortable. and there is little time to enjoy the sun sets. it is either the end of a long day or the beginning of the next one. >> germany's book is lea celebrating its 50th anniversary. we will have a look at how life has changed for

supporters point to the economic benefits of fracking and say it can be done safely.rk officials say if fracking moves forward, it will be done with the strictest standards in the nation. >>> overseas stocks were mixed. the nikkei gained a fraction to hit a three month closing high. the hang seng lost a fraction. >>> we'll get earnings reports from dell, hewlett-packard. and best buy. wall street posted gains last week. >> the dow added 67 points. the nasdaq gaining 59. >>> greece is expected to pay a $4.7 billion debt to the european central bank and is set to meet with the chancellor to discuss new terms of the bailout. germany's finance minister says greece must go along with the terms of the bailout including sticking with austerity budget. >>> today honda begins production on the 2013 accord. the mid-size sedan has been one of the biggest sellers in the u.s. for years. but it's facing increased competition from ford, hyundai and volkswagen. the newly designed accord will be similarly priced to last year's model starting at $21,000. >>> no laughing matter at the t

from fracking.hey have to essentially take the water, sand, and chemical mixture and put it in a giant underground dumpster. so the disposal wells are more than 13,000 feet deep. and when they're doing this, it's causing some faults to slip and it's causing some of the small earthquakes in places like you said that have had no seismic activity, really, before this time. >> do they have to be dumping the wastewater 13,000 feet deep into the earth? do they have other options for other ways to handle this part of the drilling process? >> that could be something they'll start looking at at some of the wells that have been blamed for the earthquakes. not all of these disposal wells in this area of seismic activity have caused the quakes, but about 70 of them have. so one thing they could stop doing is stop injecting the wastewater down there. another thing they could do is just put it in a different disposal well that's known not to cause quakes. there's a possibility of treating it, setting it back cert

now, in this case, hydraulic fracturing or fracking which essentially involves blasting millions of gal of water to release composites underneath. it's environmentally safe and sound for a good reason. save oxygen telling artists that because lady gaga, david burn, anne hat

we are worried the epa would determine fracking fluids as environmentally unfriendly. you look at the history of bismarck, we came through the 2008 recession as the only small metro area in the united states to not go into recession. we feel we have a self-sustaining economy and extraordinarily robust and resilient. >> let's hope it's sustainable. thank you for sharing your story as well, john. >> you're welcome. >> jobs in the economy are obviously top issues in the race for the white house. and so are the personal finances of the candidates. mitt romney is no stranger to having his wealth scrutinized. now, his running mate, paul ryan's investments are under the microscope as well. joining us now, dave, are we going to get a look at the irs filings from paul ryan? >> we definitely have a look at some of his previous finances. the irs question is a little bit different, too. he said he will release, like mitt romney, two years of his tax returns. pretty much meet him year for year although he actually did release to mitt romney during the vice-presidential screening pr

at the university level they are studying it, learning about pollution and fracking. they want to get into science and technology. their little minds are really anxious to create better ways to generate waste, better ways to preserve and use our water more effectively. i think because of the issues of global warming, the awareness, the social world we have become, now they can see more. they can believe more. this is not a water crisis that is possibly going to affect you and i tomorrow in the next five years. what really stunned me was just a few weeks ago. my baby in the film erin brockovich is now having a baby, my first grandbaby. i look, and i think i am going to be holding my next generation, and that is the one that could be in trouble. sometimes you have to see the forest through the trees and realize that here in the united states there are people in parts of texas that are turning on their water and their well is dry. that is what makes it real for us. we need to have that compassion. listen, take a look history. so many things that we have said were coming,

companies convincing tourists a park would be just beautiful with fracking wells all over how long until speed limit signs are advertising the newest ford or chevy sports car flaunting how it can reach the speed a lot less than six segments how long until penn station in new york or union station here in washington d.c. get renamed after corporate sponsors and become exxon mobil station and blue cloth blue cross blue shield station is this the sort of future we want where everything that used to belong to us to we the people now belongs to a corporate sponsor. or we can't leave our house or send our kids to school or. you know get ride in an ambulance god forbid or call the fire department without being bombarded with by corporations telling us what insurance policy we should buy what pizza we should order or whether or not we should get our fried chicken extra crispy or original recipe this of course is the world in vision by an randon all our brave new world buddies like alan greenspan and paul ryan but frankly to paraphrase antonin scalia. if the founders had heard such a proposal it

coal chokes their citizens, to breed people say fracking is bad.is dirty, which is true, and it is a fossil fuel. china cannot afford will not be able to afford massive solar or wind for decades. in the meantime, there will soon be producing more carbon dioxide per person than we are. we have to help them expedite them, switchover to natural gas that has one-third of the emissions of carbon dioxide. anything we do in the u.s., if we ignore china, it is not really addressing the problem. >> win "democracy now!" was a the climate change conference in durban, i spoke with marc morano, publisher of, depot, a website run by climate denier group committee for constructive tomorrow. i asked about president of in his record on climate change. >> the name is george w obama. that kept the same principles and negotiating stance as president george w. bush did for eight years. obama has carried on bush's legacy. we tip our hat to president obama in helping crush and continue to defeat the nine editions process. obama has been a great friend. he has problems fo
