CREDO Mobile Many argue that natural gas is a great bridge between our current dependence on coal and a clean energy future. Unfortunately, much of our natural gas is obtainable only through "fracking" - injecting dangerous chemicals into the ground to free up the gas. Watch this rather amazing video before you get excited about natural gas.
