But just in case there was any doubt, UCS crunched the numbers to compare the different types of school buses from gasoline and diesel-powered option, to naturalgas, electric and yes – even propane. The infrastructure law allows for some of the funds to be used for other types of buses including naturalgas or propane-powered buses.
Did the companies initiate plans to cut emissions or were they forced to do so by state law? thanks to Jetta Cook, Berkeley Law ’22). (1) NaturalGas: 44.8%. Carbon Reduction Goal : Reduce CO2 emissions rate by 67% by 2025 from an adjusted 2005 baseline. NaturalGas/Fuel Oil: 39%. NaturalGas: 51%.
The amendment would cover pollution from major oil and gas infrastructure and pipelines, power plants and many other facilities that emit these air pollutants. And they can also change the zoning laws, said Rep. They have every right to say no to a business coming in if they have environmental concerns and they can prove them.

The Department of Environmental Protection published notice in the January 28 PA Bulletin announcing the availability of a revised GP-1 Air Quality General Permit for NaturalGas and Oil-Fired Small Combustion Units. As a general rule (Section A.9) As a general rule (Section A.9)
SMR requires steam, heat, and pressure to convert methane (in naturalgas) to hydrogen and carbonmonoxide. SMR is a high-carbon process that uses fossil fuels for process heat. The post Clean Hydrogen: How It’s Produced and What We Can Do with It first appeared on Law and the Environment.
Shell must be held accountable under the law and take appropriate steps to prevent illegal pollution going forward.” There must be strict penalties to deter this clear violation of the laws.” We can’t allow these pollution events to become the cost of doing business.
The following factsheet on asthma and air pollution from naturalgas facilities was compiled by the Environmental Health Project -- Asthma is a chronic disease that affects breathing. Since 2005, shale gas development, also known as unconventional naturalgas development (UNGD), has grown rapidly.
The study-- Hazardous Air Pollutants In Transmission Pipeline NaturalGas: An Analytic Assessment -- was accepted for publication in Environmental Research Letters journal September 16. The contaminants looked at in that study were primarily carbonmonoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, formaldehyde, but not HAPS.

We have been subjected to continual gas inhalation, methanol byproducts, carbonmonoxide, H2S [hydrogen sulfide] gas, etc., Myself, Eric Steppe, was directly exposed to carbonmonoxidegas and H2S gas. Over the past year, we have experienced working in an unsafe work environment.

In its first year of operations, Shell exceeded four air permits limits for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), carbonmonoxide, nitrogen oxide, and hazardous air pollutants. Shell can’t operate safely and that’s why we expect PA DEP to hold Shell to at least operate within the law,” said anaïs peterson of Earthworks.
Thanks in large measure to naturalgas replacing coal, the International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts carbon emissions in 2040 to be lower than in almost all of the IPCC scenarios. Carbon emissions are thus following the same trajectory as other air pollutants. Renewables have the same impact everywhere in the world.
