Fracking is like suggesting we drink poison when we're thirsty.

The problem with natural gas is that it deludes us into thinking the fossil fuel problem is solved. All it does is delay the agony of the end of oil. Which comes first, the actual running out of the sticky stuff, or the cataclysms of prodigal greenhouse gas emissions and resultant warming?
We will either learn to think long-term or we will be the fools upon the sinking ship of two thousand years of bad values and mindless delusion.
