Feds Invest Tiny $47M to Reduce Methane Emissions in Oil & Gas

We find this story kind of funny--and sad. The left and the Bidenistas are panicked over methane leaks. They claim methane leaks into the atmosphere are 70X more potent in causing man-made global warming than plain old carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. It's all a hoax, but, whatever. Let's assume it's a worthy thing to try and reduce the amount of methane leaks coming from oil and gas operations (ignoring, for the moment, the fact there are two other sources of methane leaks much larger than oil and gas--nature itself and agriculture). The Biden administration, which just released a $6.6 TRILLION budget (an incomprehensible number), is going to fund research on how best to detect and stop methane leaks for O&G. Guess how much the Bidenistas will spend on this critical work? (Please don't laugh...) A grand total of $47 million.
