That’s an interesting comment. I don’t know where such reserves are
I don’t believe they are in France, Germany, Italy or maybe Poland
The UK has found frackable shale in several inland locations but the environmentalists will not allow them to extract it.
The reason you do not hear about shale in France, Germany, Italy, etc is that they are not allowing seismic testing even to locate shale deposits.
Hungary found a large shale deposit in its southern region but faces opposition for extraction.
Israel has found an abundance of frackable shale.
The truth is that shale gas/oil seems to be everywhere and it could be extracted safely and cleanly. Only the anti-oil nuts are preventing nations from finding it and using it.
Oh, one other thing.
Environmentalists loved natural gas. Sierra club was a huge proponent of expanding use of natural gas.
That was until natural gas started to be found in abundance right under our feet.
Now they all oppose natural gas.
These are cultists, not reasonable people, which is why they suffer from shortages, dependency and specter of war.
You’re right.
