“FracTracker, the project, was originally developed to investigate health concerns and data gaps surrounding western PA fracking. Today, as a non-profit organization, FracTracker Alliance supports groups across the United States, addressing pressing extraction-related concerns with a lens toward health effects and exposure risks on communities from oil and gas development. We provide timely and provocative data, ground-breaking analyses, maps, and other visual tools to help advocates, researchers, and the concerned public better understand the harms posed by hydrocarbon extraction. We work with concerned citizens, NGOs, the media, researchers, and a variety of other stakeholders to access and make energy-related data more accessible and actionable. Here are some of the services we provide:
- Energy data analyses and online maps
- Customized maps, upon request
- Free mobile app for tracking fracking
- Internship opportunities for college/grad students
- Public participation projects
- Newsletters
- Photo and video library
- Oil and Gas 101 resource
- Presentations on energy issues
- Periodic field tours hosted for the media, researchers, students, and general public..”
