Gas Ban Controversy

New York is poised to become the first state to ban natural gas heating and appliances in new buildings, raising questions about the effectiveness of such measures on carbon emissions. Meanwhile, California's regulators are also moving to prohibit gas furnaces and water heaters, leading to increased costs for homeowners. Both states seem more focused on creating a sense of moral superiority rather than addressing the underlying energy issues, as fossil fuels still power their electrical grids.
