That's just the heat off of the water coming out of the ground which is 120 degrees it's no big deal. The increase in emissions in the DFW area is mainly cause by automobiles which increases yearly due to the increase of population. Maybe you should raise hell about that instead.

When you stop driving your vehicles and turn your electricity off to your home and wearing the clothes and makeup from the store.I might listen to you. How do you think your putting that crap on your computer happens. all this just magicaly happens it is all made to happen with the fossil fuels that we DRILL for, you hypocrite. Thanks

How do you think that fracturing a pay zone 7000 to 12000 feet below ground will affect your ground water when the fresh water producing zones are at 250 to 750 feet from the surface with various barrier rock between them?? A land fill that you send wast to leaches more in to the ground water from the surface!

Going back to school will enable you to find a better job where you won't be exposed to the very toxic and dangerous chemicals and all the diesel emissions. That will improve your health. It will also help with your reasoning skills so you can make those kinds of connections. Best of luck to you.

I would love to leave. Should we just walk away from the house and lose the equity we have in it, or stay and possibly ruin our health? Aruba wrecked our home. Own 10 acres, can only use 5.5. Ten of thousands of acres that make up the Barnett Shale, and Aruba has to show up in my back yard? If digging holes in the ground is the best you can do, try going back to school- you'll get a better job, and your health will improve, and you'll be around to enjoy your family for many more years to come.

EPA will require aggregation of emissions and then Big Gas will be forced to clean up their act.
WAHOO!!!!
STATE DATA SUPPORTS CONCLUSIONS OF EDF/SMU STUDY ON BARNETT SHALE EMISSIONS
TCEQ's numbers confirm the study by Dr. Armandariz.
Emissions of smogforming nitrogen oxides and volatile organic emissions for the entire 19-counties of the Barnett Shale area were approximately 200 tons per day.
The oil and gas industry stubbornly disputed Armandariz's study allowing these emissions to continue and thereby endangering public health and safety.

Scott, sure, you are correct. Now consider what's in that mud. There are many toxins in drilling mud plus the toxic hydrocarbons (VOCs) that come back up from the formation and the RADIOACTIVE WASTE.
