Remember: You can never prove that your particular case of cancer came from drinking carcinogens.
Sure, all your neighbors died of the same thing, but maybe you’re the only one that would have had it anyway.
(This argument has worked in court, which is why I’m repeating it.)

Luckily, you don't need to prove 100% culpability to win a civil suit.

Please source your claims. Fracking most definitely increases rates of low Richter scale seismic activity. However, fracking does not pollute groundwater. Wastewater injection, a process which happens once a fracked well is exhausted, can - if done improperly.
However, your claim is nothing but anti-science drivel unless you source it. Do you also believe vaccinations are harmful because they "inject chemicals into your body"? These processes are more nuanced then you think and are heavily regulated.
In many ways it feels like we still live in the wild west
