Fracking emissions much worse than predicted
jeudi 17 avril 2014 à 14:00Fracking wells' methane emissions are up to 1000 times higher than claimed, and that's even before the fracking starts.
This means it is stupid and self-defeating to try to reduce global heating by switching from coal to fracked gas.
In any case, calling it "switching" is misleading because just as much coal continues to be extracted and burned. Fracking is in addition to coal.
