Biden’s LNG Move Is a Failure Three Times Over
==========

President Joe Biden's Department of Energy has halted pending approvals of exports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) while studying the economic and environmental effects. This move, while aiming to fight climate change, is ill-timed and unwise. Reducing US exports of LNG in the short term will force buyers to seek supplies from less regulated producers and rely more on dirtier fuels like coal. This undermines the effort to defeat Russia in Ukraine and may increase global greenhouse gas emissions.
