Shale gas: 'The dotcom bubble of our times'
Comment: output from shale wells declines so quickly that they will never be profitable – when investors realise this, the industry will collapse, writes Tim Morgan

The US is already littered with wells that have been abandoned, often without the site being cleaned up.
