Paull Young @paullyoung.bsky.social · 22/01/2025I live by some SoCal Gas Infrastructure close to LAX & had not realized until this week our entire neighborhood is in a higher wildfire risk zone due to that gas storage. Crazy we have a gas storage field close to LAX! 020

There is no energy emergency in the U.S. The U.S. is the world's top producer of oil and gas at the moment, and the top exporter of gas, and U.S. oil and gas producers are making record profits. 352462724
