In one of the finest examples of backward thinking Progressivism, the fuel responsible more than anything in the past two decades for lowering American emissions (if you still think that’s a thing we should do) was just banned by NY Democrats.

Banning Gas Stoves, Dogs and Cats, Living Together, Mass Hysteria …
Two days ago, which is forever in internet time, we covered the attempt to ban gas stoves for cooking and connected funding for the study to a gas-banning green group. The story has quickly evolved and been exposed even further, and I’d like to get you up to speed.
Ohio Law Defines Natural Gas As Green Energy – Requires Regulators to Grant Leases
I confess to being a bit embarrassed that I didn’t think of this myself. It’s genius. The Left refuses to count Nuclear and Hydro in green energy portfolios even though there are no “CO2” emissions. Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, who is more Sununu than DeSantis, took that green playbook and used it to declare Natural Gas ‘green energy.’
Report Motivating Feds to Consider Gas Stove Ban Funded By Green Group Committed to Transition Away From… Natural Gas
The Feds are coming for your gas stoves! “The US Consumer Product Safety Commission is considering the health risks associated with gas cooking.” Why not just say you hate efficient, affordable home cooking? Or, how about choosing between charging the EV they made you buy with a 7-year loan or a hot meal?
The Left’s Green-Energy Agenda Leads to Record Coal Use in 2022
How often have we said it? Whatever the Political Left claims, the opposite is always the truth. From Women’s rights to Crime Prevention to Poverty to Lowering Health Care Costs. The end result is always the opposite, and that includes CO2 emissions.
New England’s Shortsightedness on Energy Isn’t Just Bad for You, It is Bad for The Green Agenda
It is no longer a secret. Instead of letting consumers and markets drive energy decisions, environmental activists and special interests did. The byproduct of policymakers listening to moonbats is, ironically, going to be worse for the environment.
Another Reason to Vote Out Democrats – The Potential for Rolling Blackouts in a New England Winter
ISO New England keeps saying they think the grid will be stable this winter, but they are lying. What the hell else would they say but we don’t have the energy infrastructure or the energy, and it’s a failure they’ve known about for a while—one which is almost entirely the fault of the political Left.
Planners Are Planning for Blackouts This Winter (for you, not them).
The United Kingdom was an early adopter of codependent green energy schemes, and this winter could be the first full test of what decline feels like in the Woke energy new world order. “UK Plans for Blackouts in January in Emergency Energy Plan.”
Pay Attention America: Winter is Coming and Green Energy Can’t Keep Europe Warm
If ever there was a dead donkey to kick again, it’s this one, especially in the Northeast. Windfarms and solar installations will never keep us warm in the Winter. Absent a nuclear ramp-up with some hydro and natural gas backup, the all-electric future is not one coming soon, but Winter is!
Natural Gas. The Lifeline to America’s Energy Future
Seventy-Eight percent of America’s electric power comes from burning fossil fuels. 32% comes from natural gas and the rest from oil and coal. 9.6% nuclear with the rest wind, Hydro, and solar power. Solar and wind power are weather dependent and require power backup when they are not available.
Green Party Vice Chancellor – Germany is Going to have to Burn More Coal
When Donald Trump declared before the UN Assembly that Germany would be at the mercy of Russia because of its green policies, the elites scoffed. Germany laughed. Four years later, Economy Minister Robert Habeck announced that Germany must burn coal because they can’t get enough gas from Russia.
Fake News: New Hampshire Bulletin Misinforms About Cause Of Electric Price Increases
Steve recently posted about the virtually unbelievable increase (50 percent) in electric prices in store for New Hampshire: Local utilities serving the Granite State are preparing to adjust what they charge for electricity. The cost of natural gas has skyrocketed, and that pain is about to find ratepayers’ pockets. Amanda Gokee of the “New … Read more
Build Back Better: Your Electric Rates Are About to Double
Local utilities serving the Granite State are preparing to adjust what they charge for electricity. The cost of natural gas has skyrocketed, and that pain is about to find ratepayers’ pockets.
Coal Powered Car Pride Month?
US Senator Debbie Stabenow (D) has pride. Not ‘cuz it’s June. Well, she’s probably doing that rainbow thing, but we’re talking about EVs. In recent remarks, she gushed about how gas prices meant nothing to her as she tootled along in her electric vehicle.
Biden Promised Europe “15 Billion Cubic Meters” of Natural Gas This Year … From Where FJB?
Biden’s war on the American economy started with his Day One Executive Orders hobbling the oil and gas industry. The plan was to make it so expensive that they’d have an easier time pushing non-green pricier energy solutions. Part of that plan is working.
Joe Biden is (MAD) – Making America Dependent …
Democrat energy policy has already moved the US from energy independent to dependent. We are already buying three times as much oil from Russia and at higher prices, but that’s not bad enough. The Biden Administration wants more dependence.
Biden Hands Russia Another Victory
One of Russia’s critical pieces of leverage is energy. Europe is dependent on Putin. Trump’s energy policy had begun to kneecap that advantage, but Biden has done everything in his power to give Russia the upper hand.
Dems Crammed an Energy Tax into the Build Back Better Boondoggle
You best take a step back because House Democrats built a new energy tax into HR5376 and it is not going to make your life better. But it will make it more expensive.
Northeast Activists Still Working to Ensure We All Freeze to Death
For years, New England has had an energy deficit problem exacerbated by the Left’s None of the Above strategy toward new infrastructure. They block pipelines, power plants, and even transmission lines that could deliver their crappy, dirty wind and solar.
Too “Green” California Has to Build Five Natural Gas Power Plants to Prevent Blackouts…
It’s been a strange year for California. They had to admit that cleaning up the forests might cut down on Forest fires or thier severity. And now they are building gas-fired power plants to prevent the blackouts that result from relying on too much of that Green* energy.
