Environmental Public Health Dimensions of Shale and Tight Gas Development
A number of studies suggest that shale gas development contributes to
levels of ambient air concentrations known to be associated with increased risk of morbidity and
mortality. Similarly, an increasing body of studies suggest water contamination risks exist.

Impacts of shale gas and shale oil extraction on the environment and on human health
A report by the European Parliament Study, June 2011
Should fracking stop? Extracting gas from shale increases the availability of this resource, but the health and environmental risks may be too high.
Natural gas extracted from shale comes at too great a cost to the environment, say Robert W. Howarth and Anthony Ingraffea. Undated.
