"Our analysis shows that the LNG facilities proposed, approved and under construction far exceed what is needed to replace Russian gas." - Bill Hare

Climate Analytics is cited for the warning of LNG expansion globally.

"We’re at that stage of history now where everyone has to reduce emissions. And the implications of John Kerry’s proposal is that companies would not actually have to reduce emissions if they buy offsets." - Bill Hare voices concern against the US's proposed Energy Transition Accelerator

"We're witnessing a major push for expanded fossil gas LNG production and import capacity across the world – in Europe, Africa, North America, Asia and Australia – which could cause global emissions to breach dangerous levels," - Bill Hare

Planning and build-up of liquified and other natural gas — due to an energy crisis triggered by Russian’s invasion of Ukraine — would add 2 billion tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (1.9 billion metric tons) a year to the air by 2030, according to a report released by Climate Action Tracker.

“If fossil fuel companies think that they can expand production under a net zero target, they need to think again.”- Bill Hare

India invests in renewable energy, but still heavily relies on coal.

“Our current levels of global warming at 1.1 degrees Celsius (2 degrees Fahrenheit) have already caused dangerous and widespread losses and damages to nature and to billions of people... Losses and damages are unavoidable and unequally distributed” with poorer nations, the elderly, the poor and vulnerable hit harder. - Climate Analytics scientist Adelle Thomas
