Another level of irony is that this is partly because Europe does not want to develop shale gas for environmental reasons, so it imports US LNG... which is mostly shale gas [1].

The US love Europe's policies...

Have you seen the environmental impact of shale gas?

If the US is willing to destroy certain areas of its country in exchange for money, Europe will give them the dollars.

If Europe has nobody else to do it for them, I'm sure they'll do it themselves.
