Was that meant as an understatement Beth, it is dirtier than coal when all the studies are completed sometime in the next few years, why is it taking so long for EPA to act to curb methane releases, drilling waste, fracking fluid et al??????

Findings show carbon pollution from power plants can be cut cost-effectively by using wind, solar and natural gas. It’s less costly to get electricity from wind turbines and solar panels than coal-fired power plants when climate change costs and other health impacts are factored in, according to a new study.
