The Wall Street Journal recently posed this question in an article about an oil county in New Mexico, where some are preparing for what seems like an inevitable drop in investments and hence, oil income.

“In Appalachia, the coal economy has been declining for decades,” Daniel Raimi, a fellow at Resources for the Future, told the Wall Street Journal. “It has resulted in really entrenched poverty and really big problems.” Comparing shale oil to coal is a little forced, however, in the context of both fuels’ evolution.
