The Truth: New DEP Data Show Methane Emissions Continue to Decrease, Air Quality “Continues to Improve”

Another person posted a thread claiming that emissions have increased in PA due to shale development. This was a dishonest post, it only told a miniscule part of the story leaving out facts and information that would prove their claim wrong.

For the whole story please read the story at the following link.

That other person has a long history of ignoring facts. What is sad is that the industry does so little to get out its side of the story.  Instead of the silly commercials they run with the 'all of the above' sources of energy ads, they should show that the air is cleaner, tax revenue is up, jobs are created, and converting diesel to nat gas would clean the air even more.....especially inner city air where diesel is a major contributor to pollution.

Jim,

That person does not ignore facts, he distorts them. I believe intentionally.

The sad point there is that he has profited from the development of oil and gas. He is an elitists who believes that he knows better what is good for the masses. But should never have to suffer any of the deprivation his beliefs would cause.

Oh no! WE, should all live without electricity and natural gas to light and heat our homes. While at the same time, he and his elitist friends live in the lap of luxury. After all he believes he is better than us and he and his elitists friends deserve to lord over us.

The proof of what I say is that he refuses to forego the use of oil and gas in his life, which also makes him a hypocrite.

Consider his work place, is there an actual need for it's existence? Absolutely not! Yet because he accepts outrageous compensation from that institution he is quite happy to ignore it's ridiculous carbon foot print.

He is a charlatan and a hypocrite and no one here should pay him any mind.

Finally, I agree that the oil and gas industry (shale development) is woefully inadequate in getting the facts out.

I have contacted friends in the industry and no one seems to get it.

I guess it's up to folks such as you and I to keep the truth in front of the public on forums such as this.
