Pipelines have been refused permits.

How did you think it would end?

It gets cold in these parts. I'm already wearing sweaters.

My current home is heated with natural gas. My older homes burned oil and I was glad to be finally rid of that. Natural gas is a much cheaper way to go - provided you can get it.

Not just pipelines. Maine morons voted down powerlines from Hydro Canada that would be on existing pipeline property for the most part. Clean energy voted down so we can suffer.

And this:

“New England’s challenges are becoming more acute as older coal, oil and nuclear-fueled generators shut“

I seemed to get the impression that individual homes using natural gas directly would get priority over electricity producers using NG to power plants.

Instead of building a simple 400 mile pipeline west, into THE LARGEST GAS FEILD IN THE WORLD, they banned pipelines, and must import their gas as LNG, from foreign destinations, on foreign ships.

I am trying hard to feel sorry for them, but can’t muster it.
What should be the cost for green stupidity and asinine leftist virtue-signaling?

We aren’t the only country with a Deep State.

And they are all in on this together.

Not from me. That area needs to get knocked back to reality and realize that whatever gas/energy situation they are faced with is a direct consequence of their overall support for this incompetent leftist Administration.
