Hydraulic fracturing, the process of injecting water and chemicals into shale to release natural gas, holds promise for addressing both energy and employment challenges in the United States.
Offshore fracking on the cards for Scotland?

Will New York governor meet self-imposed fracking deadline?
2014-12-07 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Star Gazette: Gov. Andrew Cuomo surprised supporters and critics alike in October, when he casually mentioned during a debate that the state's long-awaited report on the health impacts of hydraulic fracturing is "due at the end of the year." With just weeks remaining in 2014, the state Department of Health reiterated Friday that it anticipates finishing up the report -- which has been in the works since 2012 and will determine the fate of large-scale fracking in New York -- by month's end. Still, advocates...

Florida Power & Light has asked regulators for permission to use ratepayer money to develop natural gas wells, and Duke is interested in how the case turns out. Duke Energy says it is following a Florida utility's proposal to get involved in natural gas fracking as Duke considers whether that would be an appropriate investment for it as well.

U.S. Natural Gas Fracking Boom May Be Shorter Than Predicted, Study Says
2014-12-05 20:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: Estimates of the amount of natural gas that can be extracted from U.S. reserves is much too high and the boom may last just half as long as predicted, says a new report in the journal Nature. Official government estimates by the Energy Information Administration (EIA) suggest that peak natural gas production, driven by the rapid growth of hydraulic fracturing, will likely last until 2040 before tapering off. The new analysis suggests that that estimate is too high. Instead, researchers say, the peak...
