List of the Harmed - Hundreds of US citizens harmed by fracking

[RiverLover]

I'm so grateful someone started this compilation of those negatively affected/harmed/killed by fracking. The news is always scattered throughout the country & this allows us to see them in one spot.

There's a more comprehensive PDF linked. I found the comments after interesting too.

Next time a Foxbot says their mantra "Fracking is Safe", maybe you could mention this list.
