I live in RI and we are also facing a huge rate increase because the huge rate increase was approved for our energy utilities companies that made record profits last year and and keep saying that they need more money to invest in additional fossil fuel infrastructure.

Coal fired plants should and will be shut down. Maybe not tomorrow or next year. But certainly by the end of the decade. The “clean coal” nonsense fooled some for awhile. |
I’m sure there is nothing more to this story that doesn’t explain whether she’s using oil, gas or a heat pump, or the type of “monthly fee” arrangement. $150 per month seems unusually low for Massachusetts. |
Joe Manchin is just shocked, shocked that Biden is going after coal. He signed off on the 'inflation Reduction Act' knowing it was a global warming bill. He says what he can to get elected, but is OK with the liberal agenda. Likely he had permission from Schumer to oppose eliminating the filibuster, to keep the heat off some other Senators like Feinstein. |
I thought Trump cleaned all the coal. |
Maserati Joe is always acting b*tthurt sbout something. Hedging his bets to align with Mitch based on Tuesday’s results. |
Coal went down 24% during Trump's tenure, despite his promises for "beautiful coal" -- did Joe Mancin rail against him?
