Why We Need to Ban Fracking on Public Lands

Fracking is a dangerous method of extracting oil and gas that will bring more climate change and more pollution that has no place on our public lands. These lands were preserved for the use and enjoyment of all Americans, but increasingly, the oil and gas industry is looking to develop our public lands for their profit. These lands are our natural heritage, not profit centers for the fossil fuel industry. We must ban fracking on public lands to protect our climate, public health and national parks for the benefit and enjoyment of all Americans.
