Carbon to atmosphere is increasing. More coal is being consumed not less. Instead of being burned here it's being saved for the 3rd world. China is putting on line two new coal fired power plants per week devoid of environmental controls. They have a design life of 50 years.
You miss the point. It's about having sufficient low cost energy for global development not the environment. In the process energy costs increase in the US so less is used. Fracking is a wildcard and did throw a curveball in the plans.
I'll give you the feared part. Have oil and whisper that your abandoning the US Dollar as payment and you have trouble hitting you like a ton of bricks potentially including the Marines pay you a visit.
