Precisely.
I have never understood why we feel that renewable energy is a complete waste of time and money. No new technology "just works" from the start - oil, coil and nuclear never worked immediately, it took centuries to discover and truly master. It takes years of research and some innovation mixed in to truly improve on a form of energy, or anything for that matter (technology, social/political/legal things etc). There is nothing stopping us from getting solar, wind or tidal from overtaking and becoming more successful than non-renewable energy. The only thing stopping innovation and improving are those who either have investments in the old form of energy, those living within a conspiracy, those simply afraid of change or those too impatient to fully discover the future.
Fracking could work, and this report is simply to stop it until full research has been done to find out its effects (as the US rushed it and never properly researched it). It may be made safe and usable, but for now the real focus should be on something that best suits everyone and renewables seem the way forward. The only issue I can see is how to replace gas which is used for cooking and heating.
I simply dislike the idea that fracking simply does not seem fit for the UK. The water table is higher, we have more rivers and natural water sources than the US has in a compressed space, not forgetting reservoirs and old but established law that protects property and ought not to waste the time of judges and the court who have better things to do with their limited resources (going to court is expensive, especially for property issues).
