Greenidge Generation near Seneca Lake
New York State has become aggressively hostile to any business remotely connected to fossil fuels. NY is openly prejudiced and discriminates against oil and natural gas companies. In May 2021 we told you about a “bitcoin miner” that uses natural gas to produce electricity to power some serious computers (see Upstate NY Bitcoin Miner Faces Opposition from Enviro-Left). Even though the company is doing its best to atone for its “sin” of using natural gas via buying indulgences (aka carbon offsets), environmentalist wackos oppose the facility located in Dresden (Yates County), near beautiful Seneca Lake (see Upstate NY Bitcoin Miner Defies Enviro-Left, Operates NatGas Plant). The state Dept. of Environmental Conservation (DEC), under the direction of Gov. Kathy Hochul, has just delayed a final decision about reissuing a Title V Air Permit to operate until June 30th, which happens to be two days after the gubernatorial primary on June 28th.
