Burning
more natural gas might also mean more greenhouse gas emissions causing more global warming
We're seeing a lot
more natural gas because of its price and the retirement of coal - fired power plants.
Fracking to free
more natural gas from shale can help displace even more polluting coal in more developed countries such as the U.S. but can only serve as a bridge — and a very short bridge — to the zero - greenhouse - gas pollution future, unless also outfitted with carbon capture and storage to eliminate pollution.

the more natural gas is present, but the more other stuff is in there too.»

more natural gas, but also renewables have done better than expected.»

more natural gas for electricity generation, overall CO2 emissions from natural gas were down because of lower gas heating demand this winter when temperatures were significantly above the historical average for the season.
Burning
more natural gas leads to higher, not lower, emissions.
Colder winter weather means
more natural gas consumption for space heating, and warmer summer weather leads to increased consumption in the power sector with increasing demand for air conditioning.
It also aligns with the assessment of clean energy and environmental groups, natural gas trade groups and utilities that have invested in

more natural gas than Texas.
Ott in a conference call Monday said PJM's grid is «fuel secure» but wants to ensure it will remain so if
more natural gas generation is added.
«A big part of the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions that we've been able to manage in the United States is due to the fact... we've got trillions of cubic feet of natural gas that we are going to be able to produce safely, and our domestic supply has gone from one of scarcity to one that has enabled us to use
more natural gas in baseload power consumption.»
Because
more natural gas is being used, the historic link between rising CO2 emissions and increased energy production / use and economic growth has been broken.

more natural gas and develop our businesses in gas - fired power generation... We are moving fast in the area of renewables, with a new core business called Shell International Renewables.
