Just had a conversation with my brother who works in oil and gas. They r literally burning off natural gas from their wells as it costs them money to put them in storage tanks and ship them. So it’s $0 for them but the rates of natural gas the consumers pay have gone up 200-300% in Europe and Atleast 100-150% here in the US while the procurement rate has gone down significantly. Such wastage of resources but the cost that we as consumers pay didn’t go down. It’s all about profits here.
