ABSTRACT
The article offers information about the gas hydrates that are currently being studied by scientists in the U.S. for its potential in providing energy. It mentions that the gas hydrates that the scientists are retrieving from beneath an ocean floor and found world wide could potentially be used as alternative fuels for cars, homes, and factories. It further states that the gas hydrates is under experimentation by the scientists.
