This is going to be a stance on fracking. So what the scenario is that,their is a vote this today and everyone has to give a yes or no.So the city has put someone up to the task to find reasons about how fracking is good and how it is bad. And then after that I will be showing you what I would vote.
The Good - http://www.forbes.com/sites/halahtouryalai/2012/05/21/fracking-is-midunderstood-its-the-key-to-energy-self-sufficiency/#e6dec7ec6dea
It can bring economic growth to an area
There have not be any recorded pollution in the area where fracking has occurred
It could lead our nation becoming energy independent
It will provide jobs
The bad & the ugly http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/aug/19/why-is-fracking-bad-google-answer
It could be bad for the climate
It could infect local water with harmful chemicals and radiation
And businesses are corrupt
So after reading these articles and finding these points I vote,Yes. Now I vote yes because in my mind ( from the two articles I read) the positives outweigh ( and possibly cancels-out) all of the negatives. So that is my vote but what is yours when presented with this evidence and trying to take it unbiasily.
Also watch the movie Promised Land which deals with the issue of fracking ( the move is R rated but still a good watch).
