RE: Court Throws Out Berkeley, California's Ban on Natural Gas

Posted by Craiger56 on July 5, 2023 at 10:50:31:

Yay!

I worked for our local light rail system (CA) for nine years and at every "communication meeting" the CEO would speak about how our electric trains provided "zero emissions" transportation to the region and how proud we should all be.

The reality was that once temperatures reached the lower eighties the nearby natural gas peaker plant would fire up (I always checked when driving by) to provide our electric trains with power.

I often thought a $400,000+ salaried public transportation CEO should know that but it's the same with unqualified people pushing bans on natural gas.

CA has nearly 80 peaker plants and there's over a thousand nation wide, and yet the same people who would ban natural gas would vote against nuclear.
