If a well is capped improperly or the cement casing around a well cracks, then yes, small amounts of methane can escape into the Atmosphere.

Methane is harmless to people unless is it concentrated in a small space.

Methane is a far greater Green-house Gas than CO2.

The natural gas companies get from hydraulic fracturing is used in part to power Natural Gas Cars and other vehicles, which can have 90% fewer greenhouse emissions that cars that run on gasoline. Companies that use Hydrofracking have a responsibility to the people around the wells and the environment as a whole. If a well is drilled improperly then, in the long term, natural gas drilling [FRACKING] can actually help reduce our carbon footprint while at the same time increasing our 'Uranium in Nature' footprint.

Green House gases work by allowing the Sun's rays into the atmosphere, but don't let them back out. Green-house gases are gases like CO2, Methane and other traces of elements. A small amount is necessary to control the warmth of the overall planet, but if we get to much green-house gas, the planet could begin to warm, which it is. If this is due to green-house gases or not, there is much controversy to the matter.
