Episode: What The Biden Administration's Limits On Natural Gas Could Cost Us
Description: Souther Methodist University Professor James Coleman critiques the Biden Administration's decision to halt the permits for multiple natural gas projects. The Administration says the pause is for environmental reasons.
Dr. Coleman argues that slowing down - or stoppoing - natural gas drilling, distribution, and exporting is not only bad for US customers because gas is less expensive than other options; he says it's bad for the US internationally. That's because, Coleman says, limiting the exports of liquefied natural gas leads other countries to depend on nations including Russia for their energy needs.
