Hydraulic fracturing, hydrofracking, or fracking is a method of natural gas drilling that involves pumping millions of gallons of water, sand, and hundreds of toxic chemicals thousands of feet underground to release tiny pockets of gas by breaking up the rock where the gas is trapped. Across the country, state regulators have documented over 1,000 incidents of groundwater contamination related to fracking. In many cases, water is so polluted with gas that people can literally light their water on fire, right out of the tap!

More than a billion people worldwide do not enjoy water on tap in or near their homes. Access to water requires many hours of waiting in lines and carrying heavy loads. Women and children are predominantly confronted with this daily task, limiting their educational and economic opportunities. Traditional methods of collecting water include carrying heavy 5 gallon buckets on the head. Over time, these heavy loads place an enormous strain on the skeletal frame, causing long-term damage and premature aging.
