Beyond Methane Pledge: Pushing for the phaseout of LNG in COP 30

16:00 (Baku time)
Description
Once promised as climate-friendly bridge fuel to advance the short-term energy transition, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) has proven to be the opposite. LNG and methane-based fuels are dangerous for people and the environment from land to sea throughout their lifecycles, starting with production and ending with burning. Fracking for LNG uses billions of gallons of water, contains thousands of chemicals, and harms local and Indigenous communities.
