Double masking helps with gas.

LOL.........
The plan is to kill off billions of people. Gates and others are quite clear that the world is over populated and they have been persuading the West to stop having babies for decades now.
“XingXao Biden is reversing all of that.”
All in three short weeks. How is that for performance?
Gonna be a long four years and I doubt very much if the lid can be kept on it.
Flyover country has to freeze BECAUSE the voters supported Trump.
Recall the pettiness when Obama shut down the NASA space shuttle program and New York got one and Texas got a training model.
Schumer crowed that elections have consequences.
This is by design.
I've been reading about some outrageous prices for NG, and electricity. I saw one report of $4 per KWH! That's unbelievable. It would pay someone to generate their own power using a diesel generator. It could be generated MUCH cheaper than that.
Supposedly they also trap almost all carbon emissions too, but I'm unsure of the exact figure.
Either Kalifornia is still leeching off the rest of the country, or, like Texas, the utilities switched to solar/wind power to appease the Left and it is insufficient.
Here’s a good map of power outages across the US. I don’t know if they include rolling blackouts, but their information is updated often. Texas has nearly 4.3 million without power now.
America's 50th, Jubilee Anniversary, of the practice, no doubt planned to be celebrated by the current Administration, will be in 2023.
And, as an aside, 2028 will mark two thousand years since the Crucifixion of Christ.
That's about seven years difference...if you get my drift.
Is Texas still selling, and delivering, power to California?
Don’t know. Wouldn’t be surprised.
No heat, no lights, no phones and our electric cars....(/sarc).
States need to ignore Washington and make their own consortium and energy policies
The problem is, these latest tech coal plants are more expensive to run than natural gas powered plants. So, many coal plants are being shut down because either they have to pay big $$ to install the tech, or, if built with it, they can’t compete.
The sad truth is, even plants with the previous generation tech are quite clean. There’s one with a big cooling lake about 2-1/2 hours north of me, and that lake has some of the lowest contaminate-levels fish in it in the Midwest. Granted, the plant is usually downwind from the lake, but, it is not always downwind from the lake.
In Maryland, my power has been consistent. Of course, utilities could be like, "Hogan's a nevertrumper, so sheeeeeeeeeee, we'll keep Maryland's lights on!"
PING!
And it can be easy for the Emergency Heat to fail under certain circumstances. When Mom was alive, she had COPD, so I was using these heavy-duty furnace filters to make sure she got clean air. The filters created a strain on the system which caused the switch for the Emergency Heat to fail permanently. The repair cost over 900 bucks. If I remember correctly, the entire coil had to be replaced.
Natural gas is relatively clean, compared to coal and wood, with no need for Emergency Heat, as far as I know. I suppose the environ-MENTAL-ists would be fine with us going back to coal and wood like the days of old, then?
That is a good point. Even if temperatures rose to Jurassic Park levels, humans would do fine, and likely prosper better than today. Potentially some populations (like me) would have to move, but over a 100 year or more period this is less a challenge than sometimes made out to be.
If we let nature take it’s course, a strong period of glaciation is due. That would reduce the human population by at least 75%, IMO.
How do your Constitutional amendments get ratified? If it’s through referendum, your state has been Californicated.
