Natural Gas-starved NY State supply pipeline project abandoned after Gov. Cuomo vowed “any way that we can challenge it, we will”
 
Posted by William A. Jacobson      Wednesday, February 26, 2020 at 8:00pm

After a four-year battle with the state, the proposed Constitution natural-gas pipeline project has been abandoned, as National Grid warns of a coming natural gas supply emergency next Winter.
 
The State of New York has a natural gas shortage, the result of years of the administration of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and environmentalists fighting the construction of new supply pipelines.

A June 2019 report by The Manhattan Institute documented the shortage and its causes, Out of Gas: New York’s Blocked Pipelines Will Hurt Northeast Consumers:

    U.S. natural gas production is soaring, up 91% since 2005—and the country is now exporting liquefied natural gas (LNG) all over the world, including to China, Chile, and India.* Despite this surfeit, dozens of communities in New York and Massachusetts are subject to moratoriums on new gas connections due to shortages of the fuel.

The very next paragraph in the article gives the very unsurprising reason the pipeline won't be built:

Quote
The shortages are due in large part to New York State regulators, who are refusing to allow the construction of new gas pipelines. While these restrictions are claimed to be necessary to protect the environment from harm, they will likely result in increased use of heating fuel oil, which means increased air pollution and carbon-dioxide emissions.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Why would a Natural Gas pipeline result in increased use of fuel oil?

Their excuses make no sense. Is there lead plumbing in the Governor's residence?

I think it's saying the restrictions on gas pipelines will lead to more use of fuel oil by shifting supplies away from gas.

The anti-fracking crowd is as dedicated to science as anti-vaxxers and climate change devotees.

Some of the anti vaxxers had a point, especially about squalene. (Peanut allergies, anyone?).
But the anti-fraccing crowd generally has no concept of the process, so they are easily led astray, and the Anthromorphic Climate Change folks seem to be in search of a sense that they have some power over things they can't.
