    • Abstract:
      The article offers the author's insights on the state and risk of shale gas in the U.S. He mentions that shale deposits are generating more natural gas through drilling technologies, but energy production puts some risks to health and environment. He adds that the future of gas yields are evolving and uncertain, in which the original estimates of the Marcellus Shale's "unproven technically recoverable" have been more than halved.
