This is by far the most used link in my archive. The Natural Gas drilling companies attacked the documentary GasLand online and trying to debunk the facts throughout the movie. This link is a 30 page comeback, from Josh Fox of GasLand, which provided hundreds of other links and facts about the harmful effects of fracking. While it is biased the information is relatively correct and persuasive.
