I replaced a dirty oil furnace in my house with natural gas and saw immediate economic benefits and emissions benefits.
I think that fossil fuels are on a continuum. There are some that are dirtier than others. With natural gas, at least the use of the fuel is less polluting than, say, oil or certainly coal. I guess it's also a question of how that natural gas, if you're looking at the life cycle of the product, is developed.
I think it could be an alternative for some Arctic communities. I'm not sure that it would be an alternative for all of them. We're doing some work through the Many Strong Voices program, where we're bringing people from the Arctic and the small island states together next fall at a big conference to look at some other sustainable energy alternatives that may be applicable in these two regions, given their remoteness, given their differences, of course. So I think you need a number of conversations about the energy mix.
