Delays in federal permitting for oil and gas exploration on public land is likely reducing national energy production and depriving the federal government of revenue, according to a federal report released Friday.
The report is the latest addition to a mounting body of evidence undercutting the administration’s claims that it has fostered increased oil and gas production, critics say. Production on lands the federal government controls has plummeted during Barack Obama’s presidency.

Cui Bono and Quid Pro Quo.
I saw some scum Sierra Club mouthpiece over the weekend complaining that Natural Gas was hurting their efforts to push for solar and wind.
Evidently the CO2 levels pumped in the atmosphere by the USA have dropped significantly as our use of natural gas has increased.
The use of natural gas is putting downward pressure (not enough) on oil prices and reducing CO2 so of course for those who what to destroy us that is a bad thing.
To the brain dead tree huggers, there are only so many watts available per square foot (unless you turn up the sun) and just like wind it is intermittent. Numbers don’t lie but environmental wackos sure do.
