While I'm not sure that any one has all the totally correct answers to this dilemma I do think we should at least be listening to ALL the scientists around the world and take some action with a view that there is some truth to what they are saying and at least avoid their direst predictions. Perhaps the title of this thread is a misnomer and should definitely be renamed.

Canadian doctors link fracked natural gas to cancer and birth defects

MDs also call attention to fracking-associated links to pollution and global warming


In a new report released January 29, a group of Canadian doctors has called for a national moratorium on all new fracking operations.
The Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment (CAPE) also urged an eventual phasing out of all existing such developments.
In the report, titled Fractures in the Bridge: Unconventional (Fracked) Natural Gas, Climate Change and Human Health, environmental and health hazards associated with fracking are examined.
Fracking releases trapped natural gas deep beneath the Earth's surface by blasting water, toxic chemicals, and sand at high pressure through drilled horizontal wells to fracture rock that is enclosing gas reserves.
Among the "frightening health impacts" associated with fracking that were mentioned in a January 29 news release issued the same time as the report are "adverse reproductive outcomes, low birth weight, birth defects, and leukemia in children exposed in utero". The release of toxic chemicals into water and air and a fracking-related increase in earthquakes also received mention.
