That's a big argument, but from a global warming perspective I think fracking is better than oil. (Of course there are other environmental concerns.) And some of it can be solved with better regulation/technology.

Fracking, oil, coal . . . All are some form of extracting carbon from the ground and releasing it into the air.  The difference in global warming effects are of mild degree, not kind.
