The explosive growth of the U.S. LNG sector is harming communities' health and threatening to put our climate goals out of reach.
The oil and gas industry claims programs to “certify” gas will reduce emissions and allow them to market their gas as clean and safe for the climate.

It is clearer than ever that the climate crisis requires a rapid and managed phase-out of fossil fuel production. Reducing the wasteful practice of emitting methane into the atmosphere does not give the gas industry a pass. They need to clean up and wind down. And they need to start now.
Pressure is growing on US regulators to investigate and radically overhaul US Certified Gas after shocking revelations were published last week in a report by Oil Change International and Earthworks.
A new scientific paper, published yesterday in the PNAS, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, has concluded that government inventories of methane and carbon dioxide significantly underestimate the amount of gases which are released in the Gulf of Mexico from oil and gas operations.
The IEA's latest methane data exposes the failure of industry-led voluntary initiatives to reduce methane emissions.
Oil Change International and Greenpeace USA released a report today raising serious questions about both the methodology and the intent of Cheniere’s so called cargo emission tags or CETs.
The American Petroleum Industry’s greenhouse gas reporting template obscures the U.S. oil & gas industry’s massive responsibility for the climate crisis.
