As Grigas’ book ably explains, fracking has had economic and
environmental effects that will become more profound over time. So,
too, will the geopolitical consequences, as the increasing supply
of LNG puts pressure on Qatar, Russia, and other gas exporters and
makes it less costly for countries such as China and India to
reduce their dependence on coal to meet their growing needs for
electricity.
