A fracking huge business

First of all, I didn't know how successful "fracking" has been, allowing the US to rise as the world's top oil producer.




I agree with the point made at 5:58 - "flaring" or burning off natural gas at the well-head just because it's not profitable is profligate waste. 

Trump rolled back Obama-era restrictions in such "upstream flaring," whereas in Canadian oilfields there are strict guidelines on what can be flared, e.g. toxic gases.
