NightSide - Are We Too Reliant On Natural Gas?

BOSTON (CBS) - Natural gas has been a reasonably clean and effective energy source for years. But there has been recent debate across the country over whether or not we should be expanding the distribution pipelines in order to increase the supply to different areas. Tony Buxton is the spokesman for the Coalition to Lower Energy Costs. He is joined in studio by Greg Cunningham, Director of the Conservation Law Foundation's Clean Energy and Climate Change program. The two will debate whether New England needs more natural gas pipelines or should be focusing on utilizing clean, renewable resources. What do you think? Is it worth the environmental risk in order to bring down energy prices?
