Fracking is heavily decreased efficiency in extracting fossil fuels. To the point where it's economic viability is under question... (How can a whole industry be in the red for more than a decade ? Is this a giant scam caused by post-2008 easy money ?) There's a reason why in the industry they call it "scraping the bottom of the barrel". So it (along with Canada's bituminous sands) should never have been extracted. You would think that we would have threatened to turn North America into a pariah if they proceed with extracting them, but nope, nobody seems to have cared enough... but of course that's just in the same vein as Bush declaring USian mode of life as "non-negotiable". (Indeed, natural laws do NOT negotiate.)
P.S.: You hurt your credibility by using a straw man of Malthus.
