So they banned new pipelines and oil leases.
Now they want to offload reserves.
It seems like a sabotage rather than a thoughtful policy.
Who will benefit from this?
- zeckalpha 5y agoThey have not banned pipelines or oil leases. Just last week was one of the largest oil lease sales. Line 3 construction continued into the Biden administration.
- zthrowaway 5y agoHow do you explain the keystone xl pipeline shutdown earlier this year?
- ncallaway 5y agoHalting construction of a single pipeline is not a “ban on all new pipelines” A single pipeline under construction is sufficient to demonstrate that there is not a blanket ban. A single pipeline under construction being shutdown is not sufficient to demonstrate the existence of a blanket ban.
- yyyk 5y agoThe admin did try to ban new leases, until a Federal judge temporarily haled the ban: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/15/climate/biden-drilling-federal-land.html https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/15/climate/biden-drilling-fe... https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/federal-judge-blocks-biden-s-ban-leases-drilling-public-lands-n1270972 https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/federal-judge...
