All without the government implementing new overbearing regulations. The kind Hillary Clinton will impose.

The reason? Hydraulic Fracturing. The use of hydraulic fracturing has allowed for the development of prviously untapped natural gas in shale formations.

The increased use of Clean, Abundant, Inexpensive Natural Gas is the prime reason the emissions are down in this country. Again, all without the heavy hand of government intervention.

There has been "a 9 percent decrease since 2005 according to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) data. EIA has also recently projected that U.S. energy-related CO2 emissions will collectively plummet to their lowest levels since 1992, as natural gas use continues to increase.

EIA Administrator Adam Sieminski made natural gas’ role in pretty clear when he recently said,

“The drop in CO2 emissions is largely the result of low natural gas prices, which have contributed to natural gas displacing a large amount of coal used for electricity generation.”

Of course, this is all made possible by shale development, through technological advances in horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing technology, which has unleashed a historic supply of natural gas. As a result, EIA has recently noted that the current shift of electrical generation fuels to natural gas has accounted for 68 percent of the 14 percent total reduction in U.S. energy-related CO2 emissions during last decade."
