Shale gas, oil reshape world energy landscape
2013-09-24 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Agence France-Presse: After unleashing an energy revolution in the United States, shale gas and oil are now becoming energy game-changers worldwide, a break with the past whose ramifications are still unclear. Thanks to the advent of hydraulic fracturing technology -- used to extract oil and gas locked in sedimentary shale rock -- the United States is on track to become the world-number-one oil producer by 2017 and a net exporter by 2030, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). Besides radically changing...
Shale gas alone is not the answer but neither is renewable energy

Guardian: In May this year, academics from Washington State University published research confirming a long-held suspicion: being loud and confident is a more effective way to win an argument than being right.

Deputies in the western Ivano-Frankivsk region had sent the draft back to the government a month ago, pressing for guarantees that the environment would be adequately protected during exploration and for a commitment to allocate 10 percent of any gas produced for local consumption.

United Kingdom: Treasury confirms "secret meetings" with industry over shale gas tax breaks
2013-08-29 12:37:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BusinessGreen: Treasury officials have met with representatives of the shale gas industry to discuss the introduction of tax breaks at the rate of around twice a month since Chancellor George Osborne announced his intention to provide the nascent fossil fuel industry with one of the most generous tax regimes in the world. The revelation came in response to a freedom of information request from Friends of the Earth, although the Treasury failed to respond to accompanying requests on the nature of the meetings...
