The Natural Gas Crisis: Greens Engineer Another Disaster
Date: Thursday, August 12 @ 20:10:36 PDT Topic: Enviromental Headlines; Climate Change
we have plenty of natural gas (as does Canada) but environmental laws have so slowed new domestic and offshore drilling for it that there’s this little problem. According to Andrew Weissman, chairman of the Energy Ventures Group, there is “a staggering shortfall, with profound implications for energy companies and for the health of the US economy.” This shortfall is going to drive the price of natural gas through the roof, as if it hasn’t already done so. It may force industries to shut down in order to insure homeowners and apartment dwellers do not freeze in the event of a long, cold winter.
