How about THEY give up THEIR lifestyles first?????
What, do they want everyone to move into Albuquerque, live in a tiny apartment that is cold in the winter and hot in the summer, and ride a bicycle or government owned & operated solar powered bus to work and the store?
(Rhetorical question... That IS one of the things they want...The other thing they want is for most of us to just die.)
How about second-hand methane from beans?
1. Give up coal firing plants, gasoline powered cars and engines, no more jets, buses motorcycles and kill all the cattle that provides us food?.
2. Kill all the liberals and use them for fertilizer to grow crops?
WOW! Swallowed the Kool-Aid big time!
Yup,kinda makes a fella proud to be from the Gay State! /s
NM can do whatever they want, but first the leadership is going to have to explain how they plan to replace all the money and jobs that will be lost to wackadoodle pipe dreams of a NM utopia, bearing in mind wind and solar isn’t sustainable without permanent government subsidies:
from the NM Oil and Gas Assn website:
30% of the NM General Fund comes from Oil and Gas Production
14.2% of the state budget, or $11.3B, comes from Oil and Gas
The average industry salary is $71K, $20K higher than the average salary across all other NM industries
The Oil and Gas Industry has added 100,000 jobs to NM

The governor should take the lead by ordering all government offices to lower the thermostats to 65 degrees or less in cold weather & raise it to 75 degrees or more in warm weather, while banning fans & space heaters in all these offices. His office should lead this by immediate example.
I’m still waiting .........
