Shale extraction costs are high since only small experimental plants have been built. Same problem with our tar sands back in the 70's. If oil stays around $40 the big players are sure to sink billions into extraction technology and extraction costs would certainly drop.

It will, but not by much. The day we ramp this process up the environment and the air we breath will go to [censored]. That process has to be the most polluting process known to man. A necessary evil I regretfully admit, as humans have been too lazy to invest in things like ITER.
