"The major New Mexico findings of Fracking by the Numbers: The Damage 
to Our Air, Water and Climate from a Decade of Dirty Drilling include:

· During well completion alone, fracking wells released 125 million pounds
of methane, a pollutant 86 times more powerful than carbon dioxide over 
the courseof 20 years. 

· Fracking wells produced at least 8.5 million gallons of wastewater in
2014. Fracking waste water has leaked from retention ponds, been dumped 
into streams, and escaped from faulty disposal wells, putting drinking 
water at risk. Waste water from fracked wells includes not only the toxic 
chemicals injected into the well but also can bring naturally occurring 
radioactive materials to the surface.

· Between 2005 and 2015, fracking used at least 833 million pounds of toxic
chemicals. Fracking uses of vast quantities of chemicals known to harm human 
health. People living or working nearby can be exposed to these chemicals 
if they enter drinking water after a spill or if they become airborne.

· At least 3.13 billion gallons of water have been used in fracking since
2005, an average of 1.34 million gallons per well. Fracking requires huge 
volumes of water for each well - water that is often needed for other uses 
or to maintain healthy aquatic ecosystems.

· Infrastructure to support fracking has directly damaged at least 35,000
acres of land since 2005. Well pads, new access roads, pipelines and other
infrastructure built for fracking turn forests and rural landscapes into 
industrial zones.
