- dymk 5mo agoMost municipalities ban nat gas in new construction because it’s so unhealthy and unsafe compared to an induction or resistive electric range. No, it doesn’t boil water faster than electric either.
- jLaForest 5mo agoWhile the burning of methane is cleaner, the extraction of methane is a massive source of uncontrolled pollution emissions which is made worse by the fact that methane is 20x worse for greenhouse effect than CO2. Clean methane is another green washing myth to encourage people to keep consuming at much as possible
- scottyah 5mo agoA lot of it is just captured during oil extraction, whereas before it just wasn't captured.
- dymk 5mo agoMore greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, speeding up global climate change. Renewables or don’t do it.
- danaw 5mo agoas other have mentioned tons of portable generators are no where near as safe as power plants and these are built right next to people's homes with no oversight or regulation.
