My Video Remix

In this video, I had hoped to sync some comic relief with a huge issue facing this country today: Hydrofracking. Natural gas, after extracting it and separating the usable gasses from the Marcellus Shale will eventually lead to the creation of radioactive waste that is then plotted in dumps across the state. No matter how much we may rely on gas for transportation and power, I don't feel that the Earth should have to pay the price. The Marcellus is a prehistoric rock that took Mother Nature billions of years to produce. By drilling into the shale, we are interrupting it's leisure and taking it for... well, money. Not only that, but the chemicals leak into our wells and poison many farms and small town homes that are anywhere close by. Yes, this will create jobs, and yes, it will boost the economy, but the price, in my opinion is just not worth it.
