Where are the problems?

Climate change Unconventional gas world could lead to 3.5 degree global temperature rise “Golden age for gas but not for humanity” UK: second dash for gas and dangers of lock-in Impact on investment in renewables

Current licences

Future licences?

Coal-bed methane Methane trapped in coal seams ‘Dewater’ seams – polluted waste water Fracking if seams less porous, flow declines (40% in Australia) Shallower than shale gas so greater contamination risk?

Underground coal gasification Setting fire to coal underground Way of using more coal Some interest in UK Need for CCS Local environmental problems: water pollution, subsidence
