Towns Trying to Ban Natural Gas Face Resistance in Their Push for All-Electric Homes - News07trends

Since a big chunk of the USA lives on the East/West coasts like with EV adoption these changes may come much later inland.

It's pretty hard to heat your house during a power outage... which on occasion can last for weeks. I know, I know, everyone except me is getting a big A generator yet that defeats the purpose. Then again the only things I really NEED to keep running are my freezers... not an issue during a blizzard.

Confusing article.

Starts off talking about banning natgas. Later in the article "In New England, most houses are heated with gasoline oil or pure gasoline, and gasoline or propane is used broadly for cooking.

If I just saw the last part of the article only, I'd be guessing it was talking about some Outback station, or some remote part of Canada.

I think it was written by a clueless hack that doesn't know fuel oil from gasoline.

Banning natural gas is outlawed in Texas.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signs law to bar city climate plans from banning natural gas as fuel source

House Bill 17 is a response to a trend in California, where cities have passed energy efficiency plans that prohibit new subdivisions from offering natural gas heating in order to reduce emissions.

Knowledge and understanding is optional in all areas today. Without a well developed built-in nonsense detector reading can be harmful to one's health and wealth.

I have a naptha cookstove. My Dad's Coleman camp stove. Overhauled it once (pushrod was bent), but worked fine the last time I used it.

I like having it around as a backup plan C (normal life), and for camping, but I can't imagine many New Englanders "cooking with gasoline" in 2021.....

Hard to decide with that article. The writer is poorly educated in general, or just enviro indoctrinated to the point that all they know is Hydrocarbon = Evil ?????

If they switched off natgas here, even more Canucks would be left choosing between Heat, or Food.....

The better question is, Does Canada accept Texan refugees?
