I only see him valuing the pipelines themselves, and perhaps not as strong of a shift into absolving fossil fuels like everyone expects. Humans are slow to change and adapt, I mean look at coronavirus and masks in the US.
Natural gas is great because of the low levels of emissions, the not so great aspect is fracking continuing to mess up peoples homes, i.e. flaming sinks.
Those that are in control should advocate for the publics best interest imo.

- acidburnNSA 6y agoThe not so great aspect of gas is that its a high carbon fossil fuel that causes global warming. 490 gCO2-eq/kWh is not even close to low. Low carbon sources have lifecycle emissions closer to 10.
