I have a friend who worked for TransAlta Utility in Alberta, Canada, and they did not know that LNG is >90 % methane. Why would this be? I think it's because oil and gas industry has been very careful in their language around their various products, basically obscuring the truth. In fact, it's one of the things they are very good at.
This is a somewhat of a lateral question on the fracking theme, but it's something I've been wondering: geothermal energy production also uses hydraulic fracturing. Is there any concern that some of the same risks of fracking for LNG (e.g., ground water contamination, methane leakage) are also present in sourcing geothermal energy?
Shout out from Ferndale, WA! Thanks for everything you do, Bill!!
