MVP Files Lawsuit Against Anti Groups, Protesters for $4 Million
Aggressive “protesters” and the nonprofits that organize and send them out are finally getting some of their own medicine. Big Green funds frivolous lawsuits, and when those lawsuits are finally exhausted (and have failed), Big Green pays protesters to engage in illegal stunts aimed at shutting down the construction of projects like the 94% completed Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP). Protesters are aggressively attempting to delay the final 6% of MVP construction, even though the completion of MVP is guaranteed by an Act of Congress (see Equitrans Announces Mountain Valley Pipe to Get Completed in 2023). We’ve reported on the recent actions of MVP protesters in chaining themselves to construction equipment, forcing delays and costing money. Now, MVP intends to collect some of the money they’ve had to pay because of the illegal delays by protesters and the NGOs that sponsor them. It’s about time.

The Ohio River Valley Institute (ORVI) is nothing more than a front group, another name for the ultra-left, biased, and virulent anti-fossil fuel Heinz Endowments. ORVI pokes its head up periodically to issue “reports” (i.e., propaganda) bashing fossil energy, like a recently updated report claiming the shale industry didn’t create any jobs or economic benefit in the Marcellus/Utica (see 
According to multiple sources, feedgas (natural gas) flows to Freeport LNG (south of Houston, located on Quintana Island, Texas), the second-largest U.S. LNG exporter, dropped sharply over the weekend and remained down for the third day in a row on Monday.

ExxonMobil recently published “The Global Outlook,” the company’s latest view of energy demand and supply through 2050. The document forms the basis for Exxon’s business planning and is “underpinned by a deep understanding of long-term market fundamentals.” Exxon is making short-term decisions based on this long-term document. And what does this document say? It says, contrary to the fantasies of leftists, that fossil energy (petroleum, natural gas, and coal) will still make up 68% of the world’s energy sources in 2050, some 30 years from now. That’s down from 82% today. Oil and gas by themselves will provide 54% of the world’s energy in 2050. O&G is still the one.
