New York Has Fallen: Gov. Hochul Signs CO2 Frack Ban Into Law

It took a full nine months, but New York’s leftist Governor, Kathy Hochul, didn’t disappoint her radicalized base of supporters. The NY legislature (both chambers controlled by Democrats) passed a ban on “CO2 fracking” (uses carbon dioxide instead of water) back in March of this year (see Radicals Win in NY – Senate Passes Permanent…

8 Mo. After NY Legislature Passed CO2 Frack Ban, Gov Has Not Signed

Nearly eight months ago, the New York Senate passed a bill the Assembly had previously passed to ban the use of carbon dioxide in shale drilling (so-called “CO2 fracking”). Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul, a reliable anti-fossil fueler, still has not signed the bill into law. What the heck is going on? Why is she missing…

5 Mo. After NY Legislature Passed CO2 Frack Ban, Gov Has Not Signed

Five months ago, the New York Senate passed a bill already passed by the Assembly to ban the use of carbon dioxide in shale drilling (so-called “CO2 fracking”). Democrat Gov.

Radical Left Turns Up Heat on Gov. Hochul to Sign CO2 Frack Ban Bill

Isn’t this interesting? Two days ago, MDN published a post pointing out that a bill passed by both houses of the New York State legislature to ban so-called carbon dioxide (CO2) fracking had still not been signed into law by Gov. Kathy Hochul (see 2 Mo. After NY Legislature Passed CO2 Frack Ban, Gov Hasn’t…

2 Mo. After NY Legislature Passed CO2 Frack Ban, Gov Hasn’t Signed

Is there a crack of light, a sliver of hope, that a bill passed by both the New York Assembly and Senate to ban carbon dioxide “fracking” will NOT be signed into law by New York’s left-leaning Governor, Kathy Hochul? The bill was passed by the Senate on March 20 after already passing in the…

Radicals Win in NY – Senate Passes Permanent Ban on CO2 Fracking

Where do business dreams go to die? New York State, of course. Yesterday, the New York State Senate passed a bill to ban the use of carbon dioxide (CO2) in any process to extract natural gas or oil in the so-called Empire State. The NY Assembly (our state’s lower chamber) voted to approve the same…

100 Protesters Rally in Albany to Demand Ban on CO2 Fracking in NY

A group of so-called environmental advocates (old hippies) gathered in Albany at the Capitol yesterday to continue their call to ban all “fracking,” including CO2 (carbon dioxide) used to extract natural gas. We wonder if they know that a total ban on “all” fracking includes a ban on fracking geothermal wells being pushed by the…

At the end of October, MDN told you about a company called Southern Tier CO2 to Clean Energy Solutions, based in Binghamton, NY, sending fliers to landowners in Broome, Tioga, and Chemung counties (along the border with Pennsylvania, where there is no doubt large amounts of Marcellus and Utica gas beneath the ground) inviting landowners…

NY Democrat Legislators Introduce Bill to Ban CO2 “Fracking”

Well, this was predictable. In fact, we predicted it! We’re talking about today’s announcement that radicalized left Democrat members of the New York legislature, including Assemblywoman Donna Lupardo (from Endicott) and Senator Lea Webb (from Binghamton), are introducing a bill to ban so-called CO2 fracking in the state.

Chinese Study Claims CO2 Better than Water in Fracking

From time to time MDN highlights new technologies used in shale drilling. We’ve talked about companies developing alternatives to water as a fracking fluid, things like liquefied petroleum gas (LPG or propane) fracking (see eCORP Tests New Waterless LPG Fracking Method on First Shale Well), and using baby oil as a fracking fluid (see ecorpStim…

Report: Fracking Reduces CO2 Emissions 13x Faster than Solar

A new report out from the conservative think tank Manhattan Institute finds that fracking–and NOT so-called renewables like solar–is the “single most effective tool” for reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The report, much to the consternation of the greenies, finds that fracking helped reduce CO2 emissions 13 times faster than solar power. Did you know that…
