EQT Uses Biden Polling Firm to Confirm 73% of Voters Want More Pipes
This is a truly brilliant move on the part of Toby Rice and those who run and manage EQT Corporation–the country’s largest natural gas producer. As you likely know (if you’re a reader of MDN), Rice has become the Apostle of Natural Gas and LNG, promoting natgas as THE solution to global warming (see EQT CEO Toby Rice Unveils Nationwide Plan to “Unleash” U.S. LNG). Here’s the brilliant part. EQT recently hired a top Democrat polling firm, Impact Research (which does polling for Joe Biden), to conduct a nationwide poll of all registered voters. The poll found that an overwhelming majority of Republicans, Independents, and yes, even Democrats, believe using natural gas will help reduce global warming.

Yale University operates a program it calls the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication. A better name would be the Joseph Goebbels Program for Climate Change Brainwashing. The chief propagandists at the once-great university are desperately trying to figure out how they can turn the public against clean-burning, abundant, and cheap natural gas. The problem, it seems, is with the word “natural.” In polling research, Yalies discovered if they could force you to stop using the phrase natural gas and instead force you to call it methane, you would begin to “think right” about this evil, filthy, vile substance. One thing Yale won’t tell you is this: Where they get money to conduct this kind of “research.” Could the funding be coming from China? Or Russia? Or Iran?
New polls arrive each day now to proclaim that Donald Trump is toast and sleepy/creepy Uncle Joe Biden is going to win big. New polls arrive just about every week to announce that Americans are suspicious of shale fracking and would, in a heartbeat, dump fossil fuels. Don’t believe either the political or fracking polls so-called mainstream media releases. Why? Because the polls themselves are constructed not to determine public opinion, but to shape it. Almost all polls today are push-polls.
The results of a new “push poll” aimed at brainwashing people (as opposed to an honest poll reflecting people’s actual opinions) have just been released claiming most Pennsylvania voters think a $2.36 billion tax they will pay over the next 10 years after joining the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) is just lovely.
Bad news for leftists Joe Biden and Kamala Harris: A majority of registered voters in their own party support using natural gas as an energy source, according to a new independent, national poll. No wonder both Biden AND Harris are furiously backpedaling (i.e. lying) about their views on fracking. They risk losing PA, OH, and other states where fracking is a big deal.

One of the most liberal governors in America, Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf, continues his campaign to kill the Marcellus Shale by slapping a severance tax on top of an already-high impact tax. He’s now getting a little help from his lib friends at the polling unit at Franklin & Marshall College. When asked a misleading question, a recent poll of 627 PA residents found 69% of them “strongly” or “somewhat” favor Wolf’s Santa Claus promises in his “Restore PA” plan–if it’s funded by a severance tax on Marcellus Shale.
Would you feel better if a driller building a shale well pad near your home was “green certified”? Meaning the company has been reviewed and certified by an independent agency for evidence that company adheres to strict environmental standards as it drills. Researchers at Indiana University’s School of Public and Environmental Affairs set out to answer that question–and they found public opinion of shale drilling would greatly improve if such a “green certification” were in place.
