Current/Potential Geomorphological Impacts
Fracking drilling into shale can cause overuse of water supply with millions of gallons being pump and the use of hazardous chemicals that could possibly seep into the water table. There are multiple shale deposits all over the United States. This could lead to major economic gains for the country but also could damage the water supply, ruin the health of people, and lead to burning of more fossil fuels which influence the climate and are consider one of the causes of global warming.
