Most New Yorkers are clueless about a law passed in 2019 called the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (or “Climate Act”), which limits carbon dioxide emissions to zero (an impossibility) by 2050 (see New York Pulls the Trigger, Commits Energy Suicide with New Law). The law is going to ban the use of oil and natural gas for heat during our cold winters. It will also ban the use of wood stoves (see New York Plans to Outlaw Heating with Wood, Cites Global Warming). At some point, New Yorkers will wake up to the fact they are being forced into using all-electric for heat, cooking, etc. And it’s going to cost them–big time. The Consumer Energy Alliance (CEA) released a report yesterday showing that the average New York household will be forced to spend $27,800 in order to comply with a ban on new hookups for natural gas, yet another law being peddled by Gov. Hochul and the left.
