Thanks Ozzy, this link worked for me:

Great article that lays bare the the cynical reality in the US, Canada, Australia, Norway and the UK.

So 7 major LNG export terminals built in the US and 24 more planned - locking in terminal climate change.

But what will it be used for, as renewable sources are cheaper, and the gap widening?

I wonder if Big Oil might be backing the Hydrogen hype? Perhaps they'd like to see LNG exported (with a lot escaping in transit) then the rest used to make Hydrogen? Those Hydrogen plants need double the LNG energy input to produce the Hydrogen. That'll make everything greener/greyer!

Uncounted Emissions: The Hidden Cost of Fossil Fuel Exports

Oil, gas, and coal exports are not counted when countries tally their greenhouse gas emissions under the Paris Agreement. This allows wealthy nations to report progress on emissions reduction goals, while shipping their fossil fuels — and the pollution they produce — overseas.
