We tend to take our thermostats for granted. We crank the AC in the sweltering heat and don’t think twice about making the house warm and cozy during the dead of winter. But heating and cooling account for almost half of the energy use in the average American household, and place enormous demand on the electricity grid during periods of extreme weather. In 2016, for the first year ever, natural gas will supply more electricity in the U.S. than any other fuel source. And thanks to fracking, we have an abundance of affordable and reliable natural gas to keep everyone warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
So regardless of which way you are dialing your thermostat, keep in mind that your ideal temperature is Brought To You By Fracking.
