Hydraulic Fracturing is what’s allowing us to keep the game of modern civilization going for a while longer without fearing the effects of Peak Oil. Fracing (a.k.a. Fracking) has made it possible to tap otherwise uneconomical oil and natural gas supplies and get fossil fuels out of them. Without Fracing we’d be in a lot worse shape, because gasoline and natural gas prices would be much higher, than we are now.
