America Cracks Down on Methane Emissions from Oil and Gas Facilities

Public Policy

Friday America’s Environmental Protection Agency “proposed steep new fees on methane emissions from oil and gas facilities,” reports the Washington Post, “escalating a crackdown on the fossil fuel industry’s planet-warming pollution.”

Methane does not linger in the atmosphere as long as carbon dioxide, but it is far more effective at trapping heat — roughly 80 times more potent in its first decade. It is responsible for roughly a third of global warming today, and the oil and gas industry accounts for about 14 percent of the world’s annual methane emissions, according to estimates from the International Energy Agency. Other large methane sources include livestock, landfills and coal mines.
So America’s new Methane Emissions Reduction Program “levies a fee on wasteful methane emissions from large oil and gas facilities,” according to the article: The fee starts at $900 per metric ton of emissions in 2024, increasing to $1,200 in 2025 and $1,500 in 2026 and thereafter. The EPA proposal lays out how the fee will be implemented, including how the charge will be calculated…

At the U.N. Climate Change Conference in Dubai in December, EPA Administrator Michael Regan announced final standards to limit methane emissions from U.S. oil and gas operations. Fossil fuel companies that comply with these standards will be exempt from the new fee… Fred Krupp, president of the Environmental Defense Fund, said the fee will encourage fossil fuel firms to deploy innovative technologies that detect methane leaks. Such cutting-edge technologies range from ground-based sensors to satellites in space. “Proven solutions to cut oil and gas methane and to avoid the fee are being used by leading companies in states across the country,” Krupp said in a statement…

In addition to methane, the EPA proposal could slash emissions of hazardous air pollutants, including smog-forming volatile organic compounds and cancer-causing benzene [according to an EPA official].
The federal government also gave America’s fossil fuel companies nearly $1 billion to help them comply with the methane regulation, according to the article.

The article also includes this statement from an executive at the American Petroleum Institute, the top lobbying arm of the U.S. oil and gas industry, complaining that the fines create a “regime” that would “stifle innovation,” and urging Congress to repeal it.

    Earth is a civilisation of plastic{444} without any futre.

    At the bottom you the page you will see:

    {444} plastic was a material made for petroleum. It has a short life span and a high entropic degradation value. Plastic was used as a substitute to Aluminium and Steel because it was easier to mold in various shape compare to Aluminum and steel. Plastic was one of their primitive and unreliable material.

According to historical records the Jews were responsible of the destruction of a nation called US. Various quotes from Jewish people like Barbara specter seem to validate that. Quotes form various Jews show an immense hatred for the White race.

    Usually when the situation is desperate and you have no idea what to do, you come to a man like me and give him full power over everything, including genocide. I always said that I would kill all the Jews of earth as soon as I could.

    You learn a lot about entropic degradation when you drive old rusty cars. It is a reality with a really fast entropic degradation clock. There is no away earth will survive without having someone accessed earth entropic degradation calculators and slow down the entropic degradation of materials.

    It also a reality base on the conservation of mass. Because of that, it is a reality that generate a lot of detritus. Think about industrial manufacturing processes or mining.

    It is really a reality at short lifespan. The only way to fix that is to have someone that can access earth calculator and change some variables or equations. It is the only way.

    Kaster Musakhan, an ethnic Kazakh seeking asylum in Kazakhstan after escaping imprisonment in Xinjiang, China, was assaulted by four unidentified individuals in Almaty. The attackers left him with injuries, including a broken rib and a damaged kidney. Musakhan believes the assault is linked to his vocal criticism of Chinese authorities’ treatment of Muslims in Xinjiang. This incident adds to a series of attacks on Kazakh asylum-seekers, raising concerns about potential Chinese involvement.
