"LNG is not a solution—it's a climate catastrophe in disguise. The fossil fuel industry is spending billions to rebrand its most potent pollutant, methane gas, as a "transition fuel." Don't fall for the lie. LNG is a dirty, dangerous, and expensive dead end.
Here’s the reality:
Methane, the primary component of LNG, is 80 times more potent than CO2 at trapping heat over a 20-year ...a critical threat to our climate.
LNG is primarily extracted via fracking, ...which contaminates our drinking water and releases toxic chemicals into the air.
The gas industry can’t build a single new facility without billions in financing from major banks. By cutting off this funding, we can stop the LNG boom in its tracks.
The push for LNG locks us into new polluting infrastructure for decades ...There’s already too much LNG supply ... investments in new LNG facilities even more financially risky. And taxpayers and communities will be left holding the bag."
