Debate intensifies over carbon impact of US gas imported to Europe
Original: Worse than coal? Debate intensifies over carbon impact of US gas imported to Europe
A growing debate is questioning whether US liquefied natural gas imported into Europe may have a carbon footprint as bad as, or worse than, coal once extraction, liquefaction and shipping emissions are counted. The discussion is intensifying as Europe continues to rely on American gas for energy security while pursuing climate goals, prompting scrutiny of the true climate cost of gas imports.
Why now: Europe's reliance on US gas imports is clashing with its climate commitments, reigniting scrutiny of gas's real carbon footprint.
