 Fracking 101 – how to frack in Argentina or any other country in the global south. Step 1. Find a piece of land containing oil and gas and an investor with lots and lots of money. If the land has vegetation, remove it. Step 2. Drill a vertical well 3,000 meters deep all the way down to the bedrock. Step 3. Drill a horizontal borehole and generate several explosions. Step 4. Check millions of liters of clean water mixed with sand and chemicals at a very high pressure to fracture the rock and make it porous. Step 5. Let the oil and gas bubbles rise to the surface, along with the now contaminated water. Fracking is like opening a can of soda. First, the fossil fuels come out under a lot of pressure, but then they dissipate and you have to frack again. Step 6. Find the first five steps until the well is empty.
