Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry signed a bill redefining natural gas as green energy under a new law the Republican governor signed this week .
Three other states led by Republicans have passed similar legislation.
Environmental groups say these new laws are part of a push by petrochemical industry-backed groups to rebrand fossil fuel as climate friendly and head off efforts to shift electric grids to renewables.
The law also orders utilities providers to prioritize nuclear energy as well.
Critics say it is more expensive than solar and wind and the US does not have a sufficient long-term solution for storing the waste.
Consumer advocates say states do not need to embrace natural gas at the expense of wind, solar and other technologies to have a reliable grid.
