2018 NY Senate race: on Environment


Scott Noren: Ban fracking; scrap nonsense regulations

Balance business/environmental regulation and overregulation. Our environment is taking a hit from the current administration policy; I am for banning fracking federally. I am for business regulations that make sense and scrapping ones that are obviously ridiculous.

Dave Webber: We need 100% world consensus or EPA is a wasteful burden

If we're the only country burdening its citizens with burdensome regulations then the world is only minutely changed. We need the entire planet to participate in maintaining our environment. Until we have consensus on this, our efforts are wasted. This planet has survived billions of years so far, and I believe God is not about to let man destroy it in a year or two. I agree it would be nice if our children and grandchildren had better air to breathe, and clean water.
