South Carolina Energy Debate: Eco-Radical Disinformation
A disingenuous “conservation” campaign is trying to kill off the one energy source that’s actually reducing carbon emissions …

Natural gas makes up a third of our CO2 emissions, so regardless of whether it releases less carbon than other fossil fuels, it’s still very much a problem.
Thanks for advocating going 85 in a school zone instead of 90 though. : )
But the other 2/3s ( in power generation) is coal, which has many more issues than just CO2 but coal only provides about 23% of our electricity. Meanwhile, natural gas provides about 40% of our electricity nationally….so it is quite substantially cleaner – not an “85 in a 90” zone.
Weird how someone who has railed against Santee Cooper and Dominion for years is all in on this expensive project they want. Why no mention of actual arguments of the supposed “eco-radicals”? The concern that we are fast tracking another mega project instead of more distributed generation? That, even with this plant, there’s a need for pipeline through private property? The health concerns for the people in the area? The reduced number of public service commissioners?
Will sees natural gas, so it must be good!
