La gran industria agr\u00edcola adora presentar una fantas\u00eda en la que el gas de las granjas industriales, que es el metano producido a partir de residuos como la esti\u00e9rcol, es bueno para el medio ambiente. La realidad es que el gas de las granjas industriales recompensa a las granjas por producir m\u00e1s gas que agrava el calentamiento clim\u00e1tico y perpet\u00faa un sistema de agricultura animal cada vez m\u00e1s grande y concentrada. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los proyectos relacionados con los gases procedentes de granjas industriales a veces requieren la autorizaci\u00f3n de la Comisi\u00f3n Federal de Regulaci\u00f3n de la Energ\u00eda (FERC) antes de poder llevarlos a cabo. De acuerdo con la ley federal, la FERC solo puede otorgar esa autorizaci\u00f3n cuando un proyecto propuesto sirva a los fines de \u201cutilidad p\u00fablica y necesidad\u201d. Esto significa que la FERC solo puede dar el visto bueno a un proyecto si sus beneficios superan sus efectos negativos, incluidos cualquier da\u00f1o ambiental que pueda causar el proyecto.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monitoramos el Registro Federal\u2014el bolet\u00edn diario del gobierno federal sobre las actividades de las agencias\u2014para detectar cualquier solicitud ante la FERC que pueda estar relacionada con el gas de granjas industriales. Cuando corresponda, representamos a grupos comunitarios y ambientales que comprenden el peligro que representan los proyectos de gas de granjas industriales. Estos grupos presentan comentarios o interponen objeciones ante los procedimientos de la FERC para argumentar que la agencia deber\u00eda considerar las consecuencias ambientales nocivas de incentivar la producci\u00f3n de gas de granjas industriales antes de aprobar un proyecto en particular. Estas consecuencias ambientales pueden incluir las ramificaciones de la expansi\u00f3n de la poblaci\u00f3n de granjas intensivas, como un aumento de la contaminaci\u00f3n atmosf\u00e9rica localizada y la producci\u00f3n de metano ent\u00e9rico; y da\u00f1os relacionados con un subproducto de la producci\u00f3n de gas de granjas industriales conocido como digestato, como un aumento de las emisiones de amon\u00edaco y \u00f3xido nitroso.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
