Where is fracking happening?

Fracking, or hydraulic fracturing, is primarily happening in the United States, particularly in regions such as the Permian Basin in Texas, the Bakken Formation in North Dakota, and the Marcellus Shale in Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Other countries, including Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia, have also engaged in fracking, although the extent and regulatory environment vary significantly. Concerns over its environmental impact have led to restrictions or bans in some areas.
