Fracking is so amazing (but not good news for tree huggers)

A recent article in "National Geographic" has the coverage of Bakken shale oil that the total tight shale oil production is now 1M barrel/day (Taiwan imports oil at 0.9M barrel/day). US advanced drilling technology is so amazing (3.2 km down the earth and another 3.2 km extended horizontally, known as fracking) that it begs the question that "Do we need the renewable energy in the next decade?"
