Hmmmmm
I had the strangest conversation with this woman one night who struck me as one of those "so intelligent she's kinda crazy" people. You know the ones? Anyway, she told me she has proof via her late father who was a petroleum engineer/Geologist/Whatever type scientist, that fracking actually CREATES natural gas, it doesn't just extract it. Her father had apparently experimented with the chemical cocktail they pump down to force the gas/oil out of the ground, and apparently between the chemicals, the pressure and heat, it acts as a catalyst and it forms natural gas.
I've heard lots of people talk about how oil is renewable through the earths natural processes. Wells that were depleted would be refilled regularly.
Think about how big the globe is, and how oil reserves are found near the very top surface. Who knows what is beneath that could seep up through osmosis.
