Tom Farrell: Future of Energy Development in the U.S.


 
Featuring Tom Farrell, President & CEO, Dominion Resources.

Tom Farrell speaks about the future of energy development in the U.S. He addresses the risks associated with fracking for natural gas such as groundwater contamination, earthquakes, and leakage, but says it will also lead to 725,000 direct jobs and more than 1 million indirect jobs in the U.S. Farrell also discusses the heavily-fracked Marcellus Shale Region, saying that if it were a country, it would rank eighth in the world for natural gas production.
