From AEI's Mary Perry:
In the interview above, science journalist Matt Ridley explains that shale gas is readily available in the UK and can be extracted relatively cheaply. He discusses why there is so much opposition to fracking, and suggests that many of the environmental problems associated with the method of extraction are myths. He also discusses the implications of a different mineral rights regime here compared to in the United States, and how the public perception of fracking shale gas could be improved if the benefits to us were better explained.
