"I’ve seen a lot of coverage of Wright’s trip to Europe to sell American gas. Very little of that coverage has plainly called out Wright’s deceitful rhetoric, and none has pointed out how Wright’s rhetoric serves to enrich himself at the expense of ordinary Americans"

Such a good piece here:

Chris Wright is genuinely a con man selling climate denial to the world in order to enrich himself and his gas industry friends.

This should be a much bigger story.

Despite the project’s crafty name – Net Zero Teesside – it can never, ever be carbon neutral

It just doesn’t make sense for the UK to fund new fossil fuel plants when 1000s Gw of clean energy is produced across the globe
