Miami Univ. Study Finds Shale Gas Reduces U.S. GHG Emissions 7.5%

Two researchers from Miami University of Ohio have just published a new study (full copy below) that makes a bombshell revelation: Between the years of 2007 and 2019, the extraction and use of shale natural gas led to a REDUCTION in so-called greenhouse gases of 7.5% in the United States. Although the authors are careful to wrap their findings in the argument that natural gas is "just a transition that's helping us reach renewable nirvana" (our words, their sentiment), we have to wonder if this study has just tanked the researchers' academic careers. Nobody goes against the global warming orthodoxy with actual science that questions that orthodoxy and (academically) lives to tell about it. Poor sods.
