The Allegheny Front show

Summary: On this week's Allegheny Front, stories from Gas Planet, our award-winning special that examines the impact the gas boom will have on the climate.  Is natural gas kicking coal to the curb?  We go inside a power plant and an uber-secure power grid command center to find out.  And we have a brief biography of methane, including a chapter on how natural gas is like a chuck roast.  Plus, one expert weighs in on how using natural gas to power our homes, factories and lives might impact climate.  All this, and more. http://media.alleghenyfront.org.s3.amazonaws.com/AF060813Show.mp3
