Did he say "inherently"?  No.

He said "costing far more".  As in, to do this without massive pollution,
you would - with current technology - spend many more dollars than you would
get from selling the extracted gas.

This points to a possible solution: find a cheap enough means of cleaning
out the pollutants.

But that needs to be developed first.

You seem to assume that all who disagree with you on this are
eco-fundamentalists who ignore facts and logic.  That assumption is false.
You would do better not to assume anyone is your enemy just for the sake of
opposing what you believe in.
