And even if you are, it’s cheaper than in the past. Natural gas prices have fallen to their lowest levels since 1995, thanks to record production and the warmest American winter on the books, the FT reported. US natural gas production reached its highest point in history in December, hitting 105.5 billion cubic feet a day in the Lower 48 states. Meanwhile, Americans haven’t felt the need to crank up the heat given the mildest winter since reliable records began in the 1950s. Surging supply and minimal demand have caused natural gas prices to plummet 50% in just one month.

No one thought Jimmy Carter would be around to celebrate this Presidents Day, with yesterday marking one year since the 99-year-old former commander-in-chief entered hospice care. Happy Presidents Day to Jimmy and everyone else.
Carter’s remarkable longevity makes him among the 6% of patients who enter hospice care to remain alive one year later. But hospice and palliative care professionals say they’re not surprised. They hope Carter’s story raises awareness about the benefits of accessing hospice earlier and its focus on pain management, comfort, and quality of life.

In partnership with the nonprofit Environmental Defense Fund, Google will use its AI and computing capabilities to create a map of the planet’s big methane emitters based on data from the satellite MethaneSAT, which launches next month. Google will cross-reference the satellite’s methane detection with the locations of oil and gas infrastructure to determine the types of equipment that leak the greenhouse gas. The data will be available later this year on the Google Earth Engine platform, which is free to researchers, nonprofits, and news media.

The US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit has upheld the dismissal of a lawsuit brought by Virginia property owners whose land was seized via eminent domain for the construction of the Mountain Valley Pipeline.
