It doesn’t get much greener than natural gas but they left will find any excuse to dismiss it.

Starving in a cave while trying to subsist on nuts and berries is greener.

I drill oil and gas wells as an operations geologist have you ever been to a drill location there is nothing green about it. We level a 4 to 12 acre area dig pits and fill them with oil based muds while venting “allowable” amounts of benzene, hydrogen sulfide and NORM gasses. NORM = naturally occurring radioactive materials usually radon and krypton gasses. While the rig burns 100 gallons a hour at times in diesel fuel running the pumps and hydraulics. Then the frac trucks show up 12 or more of them with 4000 hp frac pumps that for the next 9 to 21 days will be running at 100% power putting up a plume of black smoke that we use to find the rigs at times we give directions to a mile marker then say look to thw sky and follow the giant black plume to the rig site. Lets be honest at least. Drilling is filthy dirty business nothing green about it. Once that gas gets in the pipe, pumped via 10,000 hp ship sized diesel pumps to the Y plant where its cleaned up and then pumped again at 110 bar to the city gates only then is it “clean” burning. Let all realise how dirty getting that “clean” fuel is. I dont give a hoot for $1500+ per day pay I’ll help kill baby seals and puppies but at least I’m honest about it.
