    It's a simple fact, Countries with higher carbon emissions often have cheaper food due to industrialized agriculture and transportation systems that lower costs but increase carbon output. We should've used fracking sensibly, by using profits to build either mini nuclear reactors or nuclear power stations en masse. Energy would be cheap and everyone with a brain knows cheap energy means a booming or growing economy. Wind and solar energy is unreliable and the battery storage tech is nowhere near what we would deem good enough, plus expensive. No adults in parliament or most of the media.

      Fracking would only give us 1 years supply of gas. That's why the government refused to grant licences. Wasn't worth the risk.
      Nuclear is even more expensive than wind power, and if they ever get fusion power to work it will be at least 3 times more expensive again.

Not enough to knock you off your feet. it has also been prooved scientifically in America that the water pumped into the ground absorbs lithium from the ground and this can be pumped out again to process that lithium to make Batteries, an unexpected pay-off of the fracking process, whats not to like?

According to British Geological Survey there are two main sources: the Bowland Shale Formation where the most realistic (pessimistic) estimate is 140 trillion cu ft (tcf) and Scotland's Midland Valley where there might be 49 tcf.

    China's polysilicon production capacity surged from 116.3 million tons at the end of 2022 to 210 million tons, accounting for about 93% of global capacity, making it the world's largest polysilicon producer. China's share of global polysilicon production is expected to further increase in the future.

Which is more damaging to the environment fracking our own gas or bringing it in from the US using diesal engines getting it here?.
