President Biden is expected to announce a proposal for stronger regulations on the oil and gas sector aimed at controlling emissions of a planet warming gas called methane.

The stronger methane regulations are part of a slew of climate-related actions that Biden is expected to announce during his trip to the COP27 global climate summit in Egypt.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) projects that in 2030, the requirements would cut 87 percent of methane emissions from the pollution sources that it regulates when compared to 2005 levels.

The proposal strengthens a Biden administration proposal from last year that was expected to have cut methane emissions from regulated sources by 74 percent in 2030 compared to 2005 levels.

Power companies across the country now rely more on natural gas fueled plants than ever before (because of the war on coal). Thus, raising the cost of natural gas means raising both your natural gas bill and your power bill.

If you like cheap power for your EV you can keep it.

This old dried up sack of prevaricating dog squeeze has been emboldened by the midterms.

I suppose we should all be grateful he’s not smarter than he is but its gonna be an economically painful two years.

That’ll drive down costs. /sarc

Gotta be sure to choke the life out of us. Now to make it illegal to kill chickens, pigs and livestock.

[bert]

The operative word is “proposed”

If there is no EPA by 2030, the proposal is valuless

[Frank Drebin]

I’d hurry too if I was him. Tick Tock.

More imaginary taxation and destruction of the economy by Communism.

The war on oil must be countered by a war on progressives.

Their livelihood and lives must be destroyed. Progressives have destroyed the lives and businesses of Americans. There must be a turnabout that eradicates progressives.

There can be no love thy enemy while the enemy is killing you

Make no mistake - this is Biden’s attempt to shutdown fracking and pipelines.

Your Winter heating bills will go up another 50%.

Biden plans to create a law that every person be required to wear a “fart-bag” over their rear-end to collect the methane gas...As the bag fills, it will be sealed and loaded onto a spacecraft and and sent to the far reaches of the universe where it is dumped for alien methane sniffers...

The Marxist elites cannot control the world if America is strong. Biden is all in on helping them achieve their nefarious objective. He proclaims his hatred for America and Americans each and every day in every way possible to his Davos masters.

The “climate” is their idol. All hail to the climate!

[Vision]

They have no evidence as to why but it’s all about the climate!

[crusty old prospector]

Good one.

[ChuckHam]

This is all according to plan. Raise energy prices and crush the middle class. The poor don’t care because Uncle Sugar pays their bills and the rich don’t care for obvious reasons. Once the middle class is gone the Great Reset is fully active.
