    Massive amount of methane released during transport due to seepage. Doesn’t matter if it burns clean if you can’t fully contain it until you get it to it’s destination. Methane is a more potent greenhouse gas then co2, so the damage from leaks builds up quick.

    Also, burning it in the home is toxic and gives kids asthma.
