One of our main goals with this blog is hosting valuable discussions within the fields we explore. As to "Gasland" it is not stated as a reference to fact, but to the negative reactions to the extraction of shale gas in the US. Wether the content of the movie is biased or incorrect is not under question in this post (but opinions on the matter are off course welcome). It is simply mentioned as an example of one tangible reaction. Since this movie has gotten a lot of attention it could be considered dishonest not mentioning it when discussing negative reactions to shale gas extraction.

In the second sentence, you should add that using more shale gas reduces CO2 if it replaces coal, which is very real possibility in many parts of the world. I would however be careful to use the film Gasland as a credible source of info on shale gas. Hi Selim, I like this introduction and I think it gives a good balance among the different viewpoints.
