I've been hearing a lot of bad things about fracking lately. What are some of the benefits of fracking?

Well, it’s good for the environment because it reduces air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. It also helps to increase energy production, which can help lower electricity costs. Fracking is also good for the economy because it creates jobs in the industry. Finally, fracking has helped to reduce the price of oil and natural gas, which has made them more affordable for consumers.
