Statement From ANGA Chairman David Trice Regarding IEA's Latest World Energy
Outlook
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- America's Natural Gas Alliance
(ANGA) Chairman David Trice issued the following statement regarding the
release of the International Energy Agency's (IEA) World Energy Outlook
touting the game-changing role natural gas will play in North America and
potentially the world as we work to meet carbon reduction goals:
"America's Natural Gas Alliance wholeheartedly agrees with the World Energy
Outlook's assessment that natural gas is abundant in North America and new
supplies have significantly transformed the gas-market outlook. It also
echoes our sentiment that America must change its energy course today. This
is not only an urgent issue domestically, but internationally, and America can
significantly reduce her carbon emissions now by increasing the use of clean,
abundant, American natural gas.
"Natural gas is 50 percent cleaner than coal, supports nearly three million
U.S. jobs right now, and will create many more jobs in the future as more
unconventional gas resources are developed. As Congress debates energy and
climate legislation, any bill aiming to curb carbon emissions must encourage
the use of clean, homegrown natural gas."
