Hydraulic Fracturing Can Be Done Responsibly." Fracking. Ed. Tamara Thompson. Detroit: Greenhaven Press, 2013. At Issue. Rpt. from "Hydraulic Fracturing." 2012. Opposing Viewpoints In Context. Web. 15 Oct. 2013.

Summary:
    This article supports the point that the rewards of hydrofracking outweigh the risks and that in can be done safely and not harm the environment.  The main argument in this article brings up Exxon Mobile, a company that specializes in the refining and distribution of natural gas.  They say that even though fracking has gotten a lot of negative publicity as of late from the media, Exxon has been safely doing the practice since 1940.
     I'm not entirely sure if this is true, but if it is, then why would fracking be a problem? My suggestion would be that companies who want to frack have to get a certain license and they can only obtain this if they can prove that they can frack consistently without harming the environment.  However if this can't truly be done, then my opinion still stands that fracking should be banned
