Regardless, the water problem is a major cost and hassle problem for hydraulic fracturing. Anything that can be done to reduce water consumption would seriously help the bottom line. Reducing water consumption is in everyone's interest. I would be interested in reading more about water-less fracking, water use reduction techniques, water recycling, especially on-site recycling, that would reduce truck traffic.

<p>I don't know....maybe these 'models' were put together by Al Gore's team. We all know how accurate they were.</p>

<p>You guys all beat me to it with the comparisons to alternative water uses like golf courses, etc.</p>
<p>Don't overlook the Banana Equivalent Dose (BED) when ol' Paul and his buddies raise the canard of radioactive horrors emanating from the depths.</p>

<p>Finally a positive post. Shale gas water use for power consumption is less than coal and we get all the other products other than used for power production and no billions of tons of coal ash sitting around leaching out heavy metals and other toxins. Thank you Paul for this positive info</p>
