I think it’s super weird that we are suddenly even attempting to call LNG environmentally friendly, it has always been a mess
The one positive point is that methane-burning power plants can be spun up in under an hour whereas coal plants usually need a week to power up. If the vast majority of power comes from solar/wind/batteries and gas is only used as (secondary) backup, this may make sense.
Fossil marketing pretty successfully tries to eradicate the caveats and nuances from the discussion of course.

Woah there, we say ‘differently formed babies’ now buddy
I don’t think anyone was actually buying that right?
The only people pushing for LNG were the oil companies selling it. Which, I mean, come on, we know better than to believe a word that comes from them.
