I mean, they could have just fixed their gas leak (lol what the fuck) and bought a nice hood. Even having to suggest people fix their gas leak is comedic and reminds me of how absurd many tech people are. Bragging about transitioning, recommending a subsidy, allowing a gas leak.
- micromacrofoot 5y agoif you have natural gas service there are probably active gas leaks in your city from the supply lines, gas is very leaky
- maccard 5y agoJust because there's gas leaks elsewhere doesn't mean I want one in my kitchen.
- micromacrofoot 5y agoOh sure, but it's very common to have a minor leak in your home and be relatively unaware. Just by nature of natural gas service existing you're being exposed to leaks by your municipality. It's better to be rid of it entirely. Washington DC, for example, has over 5,000 leaks. Boston leaks ~50,000 tons a year. I suspect 50 years from now natural gas will be remembered as fondly as leaded gasoline is today.
- selimthegrim 5y agoHere in New Orleans they take your meter if you report a leak and you can’t get it back for a couple weeks and thousands in reconnection fees because they don’t trust people’s plumbers apparently and have to reinspect everything themselves
- throwaway0a5e 5y ago> and thousands in reconnection fees because they don’t trust people’s plumbers apparently and have to reinspect everything themselves That makes my regulatory capture spidey senses tingle in several different ways.
- selimthegrim 5y agoThe New Orleans City Council regulates them, not the state. Not sure if the city Building and Permits office (which has had its own travails) gets involved in this.
