Having Problems with Gas?!!

We ship most of our (fossil) gas into the UK on huge container ships from Qatar...

...which isn't cheap, OR particularly eco-friendly.

OK, so we don't want huge gas price rises, and we don't really want to Frack the very ground we walk on (and poison the very water we rely on). So, apart from using much less, what's the alternative?
It could be renewable Biomethane. Ecotricity and even the National Grid agree:

...let's just hope our frack-friendly Government see the benefits too.
