To my knowledge, gas from fracking is predominantly methane.

I can tell you that we have been producing methane for hundreds of years, but nobody has utilised this gas, free for the British public to use.

Rubbish dumps have been emitting this gas into the atmosphere for years.

Isn’t it time the numpties on councils and government started using this knowledge to run power stations on, giving the people of this country a cheaper alternative?

If the politicians cannot understand this concept as well as county councillors, then they are not fit for purpose.
