Abstract
Environmental issues such as water contamination, air pollution and the potential for earthquakes are analyzed in comparison to the leading energy fuel — coal. The United States and global energy security impact of shale gas is assessed by a brief comparative analysis of the United States and United Kingdom regimes while discussing whether there is a need for a special regulator for the industry. Socio-economic and global issues that regulators may wish to address are discussed.
