Natural gas has increasingly been touted as a “bridge" fuel from high carbon sources of energy like coal and oil to a renewable energy sources. Rapid excavation of this fuel, leads to huge revolutions with the energy utilization scenario and further it is expected to change the global scenario. The shale gas production industry has been responsible for uplifting the economic situations in countries where shale gas is mining. Utilization of these resources will reduce the dependency of USA on domestic coal and outside world. Shale gas emits less carbon when compared to other fossil fuels like coal or oil hence it can be a perfect substituted in the energy mix in this developing carbon free environment. But at the same time by increasing the usage of shale gas, the probability of methane replacing the emission levels of CO2 will increase. Thus detrimental effects of pollution will increase because methane has higher GWP (Global Warming Potential) than CO2 and in near future methane emission will likely to be more hazardous than carbon emission. This paper includes the analysis of environmental effects of shale gas in global carbon emission reduction. Moreover, paper shows environmental concerns with development of shale gas.1. Introduction In 2014 global CO2 emissions reached 35.7 billion tones (Gt) CO2 which is a new high and it is an increase of 0.5% or 0.4 Gt compared to the previous year. The annual increase in global CO2 emissions in the years 2013 and 2014 are about half of the increases in the preceding decade. After the recession in the former soviet countries, the average annual increase over the 1995-2002 period was about 1.2% or 0.4 Gt CO2 per year. There are remarkable differences between the countries within the total increase in global emissions in 2014 (Fig. 1). Coal which is responsible for about 40% of total CO2 emissions and this consumption is increased by 2.7% in 2013. As per the report from BP, it i[...]
