wishing...an end to shale gas generation. its bad for our health and the environment. period. jobs+tax income is keeping the authorities in check. currently, they (produces+govt.) are making money in these bad economic times so lips are sealed. however, assuming gas prices drops beyond a limit and supply tanks are ready to burst is when shale gas generators will feel the pain; plus throw in a couple of lawsuits, authorities will put on the save the people/environment cap and drill the produces to the ground and tighten up drilling regulations. However, when it happens, shale producers would declare chapter 11 and skip paying penalties.
i'm loosing betting on natural gas but a part of me wants it to drop bad so shale gas is out and clean gas is in.
