@BenHoare We purchased the #heatpump for the studio after PNW heat dome and subsequent fires of 2021, replacing the studio furnace and providing AC when we must close the windows, once our ventilation and cooling system, because of wildfire smoke. Too early for federal rebate, we were also too early to purchase a #chlorofluorocarbon free system because those were prioritized for EU by Mitsubishi. In 2015, we installed a #naturalgas furnace; hope to install a CFC free heatpump.

please support this very worthwhile legal action against #BigOil #FossilFuels #LNG #NaturalGas @liberal_party @NDP @TheDemocrats @albertaNDP @bcndp @simondonner @MarkBoogieman @MarkJaccard

The stupidity of the #renewableenergy pause. Thousands of #Albertans laid off because of this ridiculous government action attempting to give advantage to #NaturalGas.

Biden administration changes Trump-era rule, will ban liquified natural gas on trains

> Sept. 1 (UPI) -- U.S. President Joe Biden has reversed a Trump-era amendment to hazardous materials regulations that allowed liquified natural gas to be transported by rail. https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2023/09/01/transportation-department-suspends-amendment-allowing-natural-gas-rail-transport/9801693593391/ #JoeBiden #naturalgas #fossilfuels #US

What kind of nonsense is this?

Vancouver is not on the list of municipalities who are taking action on climate change by restricting natural gas in new homes, because our new mayor and ABC-majority council are unfortunately climate laggards.

Congratulations Nanaimo on banning natural gas in new homes. 💚

This is a huge step for climate action and indoor air quality.

The list of BC municipalities that have implemented similar bans also includes Saanich, Victoria, Whistler, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Squamish, and Port Coquitlam.

Thanks, #UCP! Removed all controls on electricity prices; claimed it was to enhance new production; then stop all #RenewableEnergy developments to give unfair advantage to #NaturalGas. #Albertans being robbed. @albertaNDP @NDP @liberal_party @RachelNotley

Egypt plans to drill 35 gas wells by 2025

The natural gas industry is spending millions to undercut California’s legally mandated goal to quit fossil fuels —and illegally spending ratepayers’ money to do it. My latest Postcard from California for The New Lede. #naturalgas #socalgas #alisocanyon

Sharing a new Gas Leaks blog, video and set of social graphics on the recent study from researchers at Brown University & Rocky Mountain Institute showing the full climate impact of "natural" gas is likely on par with coal power given upstream #methane #pollution from #fracking and #pipelines. w apologies they posted on insta https://www.gasleaks.org/methane-pollution-makes-natural-gas-as-bad-as-coal-for-climate/ ; https://www.instagram.com/p/Cvu2qxUsbNm/ ;https://www.instagram.com/p/CwAt6LZud_4/

#OTD 25 years ago I completed my trip Clean Across America And Back, a drive from CA to ME (and back) in my #CNG (compressed #naturalgas) #Dodge van using public refueling stations. I started my first website, now at https://www.altfuels.org, to post what would now be called a blog of the trip; I’ll keep posting about new developments there until #alternativefuel isn’t alternative any longer!

Dubbed the "Energy Silk Road," the China-Central Asia natural gas pipeline is China's first transnational gas pipeline. It has witnessed energy cooperation between China and Central Asian countries. #China #SilkRoad #naturalgas #CentralAsian

I expect to spend more time working on gas stoves, indoor air quality, and health outcomes. Here's a new blog post from Fresh Energy where we cover some of the basics on gas stoves and health:

“Canada’s #NationalObserver reported a supposedly independent, third-party report that #Enbridge—Ontario’s gas utility—commissioned to argue for natural gas contains data that erroneously inflated the cost of switching from #NaturalGas to electricity for home heating. The company has cited the inaccurate information to try to convince the utility commission and the public to let it expand natural gas pipe capacity in the province.” https://gratefuldread.masto.host/@gratefuldread/110939652504368160
