Will natural gas serve as a bridge to transition from oil and coal to renewables? The ability to extract natural gas from shale formations through a method called hydraulic fracturing has increased the supply of energy. Does the U.S. have a 100-year supply of natural gas? Has contamination from toxic chemicals used in the fracking process increased health and environmental hazards?
