It's a long-standing tradition. Slowly, the newcomers and new generations are dismantling what makes Oregon Oregon.

As a oregon resident the rivalry is in the hearts of neighbors, friends, and family.. the upsets that have happened make it a dramatic fun rivalry we would love to argue over for years to come.

Alternative is burning more coal in remote states and sending the electricity generated over long lossy wires to create heat here. Much better for environment to burn the lowest carbon fuel at the point where heat is needed.

Absolutely. We don't need to be thrown into the dark ages over a fake manmade climate crisis. We can step outside our homes and see that their is no crisis. Weather changes, it always has. I'm fed up with the anti human narrative that has become so popular over the last few decades.

Reality is that we will continue to use natural gas for the foreseeable future, regardless of the efforts to force the use of all electricity.

Natural Gas is one of the cleanest fuel , with no environment impact. And with the population growing , we need this . It's cheaper then wind power and solar. Environmentalists...get real and see the light, this means Sen. Merkley also. We don't need to go backwards in in progress.

Natural gas is much cleaner than coal and will be needed to power the electrical generating plants that will be required for the additional electricity consumed by charging all the electric cars we will be forced to drive!

Yes absolutely. We also need to get rid of all oil drilling restrictions and be oil independent, instead of depending on out enemies for oil, Instead of buying oil from our enemies we should be selling oil to our allies. The left is making this country weak,

Natural gas is a clean and viable energy source and building this pipeline is just common sense.

Tired of the Waco Libs destroying Oregon. This will create jobs and benefit everyone. Natural gas is one of the cleanest burning fuel and very abundant. The fake climate activist will try to stop it and Salem will probably come up with a law Banning its use in Oregon. Wind & Solar are a failure,

Burning fossil fuels is very unhealthy for humans and all living things. Piping gas is dangerous since pipes leak the toxic contents, polluting the environment. Saving money by continuing to use natural gas instead of using clean energy is poor reasoning. Spend that money to provide clean energy!

Didn't they say the gas is going to Cali? Why?

Reply

Because California can't keep their electric grid going without it. By piping it in they can say "we do not produce or support drilling for Natural gas" Not lies but Not the truth either... That's Socialist Democrat logic, hide the truth and keep public in the dark.

Biden has no respect for his citizens. He will do whatever he wants. So far he has done nothing for us, he's ruined our country. Put us in a debt that we will never get out of. He will bleed us dry. Having this natural gas thru Oregon is so wrong. So very wrong. I don't care the benefits, they are

I have PV on the roof producing most/all the household need s for electricity, hot water solar panels providing in floor heat. My 20 plus yr old 48 MPG (hwy) gas car is well past 200,000 miles, so this just seems the next step in what I can do towards helping preserve our mother planet

It's the price of one that is holding me back, mainly. I simply cannot afford a newer (used) car.

That is going to add more load to an already overstressed electric grid. No thanks.

I didn't even think about that. The cost of the whole thing, price of car and cost of charging station install, is prohibitive, but you make an excellent point. California can't keep the lights on during heat waves as it is. If everyone had electric cars they wouldn't be able to charge them anyway!

Bonnie, you and me both! Someone mentioned the additional stress to an all ready over loaded power grid especially in the American Southwest! They have rolling blackouts during heatwave now. How would they charge their cars with no power?

They cost too much, replacement batteries batteries after three years will cost more than the value of the car, the raw material necessary to produce EV batteries wreak havoc on the environment, the electric grid can't handle cold weather now, so how can it support 100 million electric cars?

The elements to make the battery are toxic to our atmosphere and to the poor who mine it. When they no longer work, there is no safe way to dispose of them which means the toxicity will live on.

I have no use for an electric vehicle. I travel across the country for work and it would take me forever to get to my locations if I had to stop and charge up my truck.

They are too expensive for the car AND to have a charging hook up put into my house would cost approximately $10,000. Who can afford that? Certainly not a disabled old woman like me. I'll keep my 2 gas efficient Ford SUVs. My husband agrees with me.
