Fracking for gas actually saves water

Climate Central:
A new University of Texas-Austin study shows that producing electricity from natural gas saves much more water than producing power from coal, even accounting for water lost in fracking for shale gas.

In other words, fracking for natural gas used to produce electricity may make Texas more drought-resistant as the state shifts from coal power generation to natural gas power generation.
...
There is much more.

The study devastates another one of the arguments against fracking, but don't expect the anti energy left to stop their attacks.
