It is sad they are ruining the environment for the sake of some gas and instant gratification. In North Carolina, there is a big push for fracking. The masses seem to oppose it here due to stories like this while a select few are for it because their pockets will be lined by the gas companies when they lease/sell their land. The gov't never thinks of about long-term costs and is always about the now.

A better solution:
Why don't they just hook up methane tanks to every toilet in american houses and capture that gas instead. I am sure what would create a much larger volume of gas than any land could hold. Then everyone is "recycling".
