A paragraph to ponder

From the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette - Fracking, reconsidered: A conventional gas boom would release even more pollutants.

"Our results surprised us: On average, shale gas wells generated about 10 times more wastewater but also produced about 30 times more natural gas. This means conventional wells generate about three times more wastewater than hydraulically fractured wells to produce the same amount of natural gas."
