Well, the claim that fracking gas has a lower climate impact than coal is AFAIK wrong.

All the leaking methane from bore sites and processing plants, combined with the efficiency losses from having to compress/regas the stuff bring LNG to the same order of magnitude of emissions as coal, if not higher.

Good for the U.S. economy, for sure, cleaner than coal, probably not.
