Residents in rural states and in more densely populated coastal states are increasingly adopting regulations to block large-scale industrial renewable energy projects, within or near their jurisdictions, says a recent study by the Center of the American Experiment.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s 2021 Greenhouse Gas Inventory , released in early April, revealed total greenhouse gas emissions in the United States decreased by 1.7 percent from 2018 to 2019.
A proposal in the Washington Senate, the Climate Commitment Act, would create a cap-and-trade scheme designed to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions in the state to “net zero” by 2050. It would make everything more expensive.
Ignoring the express will of the voters, legislators in the Washington Senate have offered a bill to establish a carbon-dioxide tax of $25 per-metric-ton on use and sale of most fossil fuels in the Evergreen State beginning in 2022.
Legislation being considered in the New York State Legislature would establish a carbon-dioxide tax and create a “carbon dioxide emissions fund” in the Empire State. The tax would result in higher energy prices for no environmental benefit.
Legislation in the Massachusetts Senate would implement a carbon-dioxide tax beginning in 2023 beginning at “not less than” $15 per ton in the first year, and rise by $5 per ton annually until reaching a $60 per ton cap.
Illinois Clean Energy Jobs Act would increase energy costs in the state by forcing state utilities to produce 45 percent of their electricity generated from “renewable” sources by 2030 and 100 percent by 2050.
A report from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Fossil Energy says banning fracking would cost millions of jobs, result in trillions of in lost gross domestic product and labor income, dramatically increase gasoline prices and electricity bills, and increase emissions of carbon dioxide and various pollutants.
In Indiana, the inexpensive natural gas developed as a result of fracking saved residential customers $4.6 billion over the past decade and it saved commercial and industrial consumers $8.1 billion.
Research indicates, President Joe Biden’s executive order placing a halt on new natural gas and oil leases on public lands is likely to compromise the funding of public schools in eight Western states.
