The April 11, 2011 edition of Time magazine featured a cover article highlighting the emergence of shale gas and its future impacts on the US and the world. The article lays out the issues surrounding global energy. Mainly the growing demand by industrializing nations such as Brazil and India, the tragic accident at the Japanese nuclear site in Fukushima, and the ever increasing turmoil in the middle east. Each of these issues lean the US toward supplying more of its own energy which now exists in a recoverable form of shale.
