6 L.I. Democratic Senators Back Pipeline, Report Says ALBANY — The six Democratic state senators from Long Island are urging state regulators to conditionally approve a pipeline to bring natural gas to the downstate area, citing the negative impacts from a moratorium imposed by National Grid, Politico NY is reporting.

Too much environmental destruction plus encouraging more fossil fuel minining and use. Our earth needs to act as aggressively as possible to slow global warming!
Pipelines don’t belong in ANYONE’S BACKYARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the so called constitution pipeline is nothing but a profit grab by investors. The only goal by this misnamed company is to get our “natural” (national) gas to Canada so that it can be sent to China. There is nothing constitutional about using eminent domain to steal one property when there is no domestic gain.
Eminent domain is the purview of governments, not private companies.
In addition the loss of nearly a million trees and their retaining green house gases in the midst of impending climate instability is criminal
oil and gas technology should not be subsidized in such a manner, ie the cutting of forests and the use of land
The greedy oil and gas companies have ravaged our country with fracking, pipelines, and compressor stations. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! The negative health effects from these projects put way too many people of all ages at risk.
NO! I do not think this is a good idea at all.
Keep fossil fuels IN THE GROUND so that our grandchildren can live on earth.
Have you thought about how your day would change if there was no oil? Think about it…
