Global "arc" of just transition
Most people don't recognize the “Arc” of Just Transition, not all countries are at the same stage. I believe countries are at different stages of just transition planning and implementation. There is an arc with three phases:

Key figure in the US DoE #LNG study: Coal-to-gas transition is a small part of how US LNG will be used globally, and much of it simply adds new gas generation. Impact on global emissions with & without unconstrained US LNG is ~0 (but slightly positive).

This is so cool. What a great method to collect data on methane emissions…
🔴New Paper!
Just in time for the big DoE #LNG study!
We present results from the first multi-scale measurements of #CarbonDioxide and #methane emissions at Sabine Pass & Corpus Christi LNG terminals over 16 months!
This has never been done before in the US at this scale! 💡🔌

Quoted in this Washington Post story. Data centers, AI, and manufacturing mean significant load growth. Gas demand scenarios are changing. That makes it all the more important to cut emissions from U.S. gas production. It's a bad idea to roll back methane regulations! wapo.st/3CHeQHR
AI’s hunger for electric power is threatening U.S. climate goals
The enormous electricity needs of artificial intelligence are driving plans for scores of new fossil fuel plants with decades of expected service life.
