Shocking fracking battle between Trump and Biden

The article “What is fracking, and where do Trump and Biden stand on it?”, appeared on CBS News on October 28th 2020. Donald Trump and Joe Biden is one of the biggest topics during this time.

The two candidates disagree quite a bit about what to do with the fracking industry.

Joe Biden wouldn´t forbid fracking, but he doesn't want any new fracking on federal land. And the other candidate Donald Trump is reportedly considering issuing an executive order that would signal his support for fracking.

As mentioned in the article “The controversy over fracking has been raised numerous times as the candidates make their final push to reach voters in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, where thousands of residents depend on the industry for their livelihoods”. The topic fracking is an important discussion whether it should be banned or not, and there for the article gives a good insight on how it effects the different states in USA and the environment around.

Due to the damage on the environment, we believe that Trump’s opinion on fracking is wrong, and that it should be banned. Since fracking is harmful to the environment and helps to increase CO2 pollution. If the USA keep using the fracking method, it will increase the CO2 emission, which is bad for the environment, but on the other hand it is financially good for America. The only reason Trump wants to support fracking is because it’s good for the industry and there’s a lot of money in it. Where Biden also cares about Americas environment and the citizens and is therefore against the method, causing the CO2 emission and the polluted water. The fracking method entails with many disadvantages. On the one hand, enormous amounts of water are used for fracking, and on the other hand, there is a constant risk that the added chemicals end up in the surrounding groundwater.
