Leftwing Groups Tell Biden Zero-Carbon Hydrogen is Evil & Racist

Not only are fossil fuels (oil and natural gas) loathsome and evil and racist, not to mention toasting Mom Earth into a cinder, but if the Bidenistas move forward with pushing hydrogen energy as a replacement, hydrogen will be just as loathsome, just as evil, and just as racist–according to 180 so-called environment groups (Communist…

Inflation Reduction Act’s Provisions for Clean Hydrogen a Failure

We have U.S. Senator Joe Manchin (lib Dem from WV) to thank for passing the so-called Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) one year ago (see Tragedy: Joe Manchin Caves & Agrees to Big Green Build Back Better). The IRA is a huge pork barrel of government spending on so-called green energy schemes. (The IRA also targets…

South Dakota Sioux Tribe Offers Support for WV Ammonia Plant

You never know how Marcellus/Utica gas affects the entire country for the good. Here’s an interesting example.

White is the Newest Color to Join the Rainbow of Hydrogen Colors

Hydrogen energy is closely tied to natural gas. Currently, 95% of all hydrogen produced in the world is produced by cracking methane (natural gas). The so-called regional hydrogen hubs being dangled by the Bidenistas (up to $1 billion of government financing for 6-10 projects) can potentially launch expanded demand for natural gas in the Marcellus/Utica…
