Fracking (hydraulic fracturing) has allow gas producers to reach new reserves of natural gas in the US...tapping a 200 year domestic supply.
The MIT institute of technology foresees a bright future for natural gas. Natural gas is abundant and one of the cleanest fossil fuels available and with the advancement of technology its use is expected to increase.
Hydraulic Fracturing, commonly known as 'fracking'.
Natural gas is found deep below the earth's surface. Much of it is contained in shale rock. A modern technology called fracking (hydraulic fracturing), which uses high water pressure to break up the shale rock is used to recover natural gas. The natural gas is then refined and used. The United States has an abundance of natural gas that can be recovered. Natural gas is currently used to heat our homes and run home appliances. It has recently been used to power transit buses and trucks. Natural gas buses are becoming very prevalent. Natural gas vehicles are becoming much more common as natural gas is the cleanest burning fuel in existence today.

Natural Gas
Gas that is natural.
Natural gas is a gas.
Pros: * Can be used in natural gas facilities * Cheap technology * renewable source Cons: * Still pollutes * Long production time * Smaller energy output than natural gas * needs 'cleaning', has a lot of impurities
CNG is compressed natural gas
Natural gas, CH4, is mainly known as methane; it is certainly a gas and usually it is from a natural source.
