"To green or not to green" Brian Ahrens

Rob Astrorino

"But back in 2012, in his role as Westchester County executive, Astorino quietly signed legislation prohibiting fracking waste from being treated in the county or used to de-ice its roadways."

"Astorino has called Cuomo's refusal to lift a moratorium on fracking a “dereliction of duty," and said he will allow natural gas drilling, but wants the industry to be regulated. He has also proposed using natural gas revenue to lower taxes and energy bills and to support education."

I agree  with Astroino because we need to have a healthy economy  and in order to create new jobs, and to  have efficient  energy.  However we do need to conserve the environment  and Astorino has  a plan to an extent and I agree with it.  He wants the industry regulated  by having some of these natural gas revenue by lowering taxes and to support education.  This will also benefit the people by going to school more and paying less taxes, if they pay for the environment.  This shows he doesn't want  to get rid of environmental friendly ideas entirely.  He is making jobs and supplying energy for the greater good and with some regulation of the industry by fitting some environmental friendly programs by cutting taxes for those who support this.
