Fracking the Eagle Ford Shale: Big Oil and Bad Air on the Texas Prairie is an eight-month investigation by InsideClimate News, the Center for Public Integrity and The Weather Channel.

In this video version of the investigation, award-winning reporters reveal the dangers of releasing a toxic soup of chemicals into the air from oil and gas drilling, and expose how little the Texas government knows about it. They also show that the Texas legislature is intent on keeping it that way.
