While fracking and other drilling techniques have opened up large reserves of oil and natural gas in Texas, they’ve also caused literal headaches, traffic jams and fatal accidents, and strains on water supplies.

And now joining the list of residents who don’t want some fracking infrastructure in their backyard? Rex Tillerson, head of ExxonMobil, which is the largest producer of natural gas in the country.
No Fracking Way....
