Shale gas provides a quick, clean low or no cost solution to energy, and economic, problems.

Shale in sixty seconds
• Exact same methane as existing natural gas. We knew it was there, but not how to get it.
• Replacing coal with gas can save 30% of all UK carbon by 2020
• Combination of horizontal drilling and hydro fracturing with technology led to accessing of shale rock
• Marcelllus Shale 15 TCF Reserves 2006 500 TCF 2007. Second largest gas field in world from nowhere
