December Forum

Purdue Energy Forum's December Forum was on natural gas as an up and coming energy source in the United States and the world. The fuel has already gained a lot of attention around the world as prices decline from fracking extraction techniques and transportation methods in liquid form (LNG). The speaker is from right here at Purdue University:
