For people who want news coverage of this, the are articles from the Associated Press and Reuters
Too many undefined asterisks. Everytime they say clean energy im skeptical, like its intentionally distinct from renewable energy. Like natural gas projects with carbon offset schemes, or some bullshit like clean coal again.
Yeah, it would be better to do nothing! /s
As opposed to more fossil fuel projects, yeah.
Looking a bit more into the specific projects though, it looks like there’s no energy generating projects at all here, its all distribution infrastructure, with sprinklings of renewable energy wording because they use powerlines too.
Your desperation to be displeased, while oh so edgy and endearing to the ladies, isn’t helpful.
We are talking about the bill that issued millions of acres in new oil and gas leasing. Im fully expecting emissions to continue increasing
No, the bill did not do that. Oil leases do not require Congress pass a bill and are completely unrelated.

And thus proving my statement. Prompted does not mean legislated. Yes, to appease Manchin they had to line his pockets. It is sad but once more you prove that your assumptions are invalid.
Man you really just looked at the link text
“This is the first onshore oil and gas lease sale since the enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act, which required that significant federal oil and gas lease sales take place”
Carbon “sequestration”
Clean usually means nuclear is included
