Case in point: same #lobbies that want to label #blueH2 as clean, use the #deregulation 🚌 #Omnibus laws to roll back hard-won climate protections, such as the EU’s 2024 Methane Regulation.

⚠️ This could open the door for continued imports of highly polluting #LNG from fracked gas in the US

Label #BlueH2 as 'clean’ means billions in new subsidies 4 #fossilfuel projects that exacerbate the #ClimateCrisis

⛔no to #False Solutions such as #CCS and #H2

#BlueHydrogen is fossil-based, with CO2 captured w/ #CCS

Research shows that #blueH2 total ghg footprint can be 20% or even 50% worse 4 the planet than burning gas directly.

Fossil fuel lobbyists have for years lobbied to label #blueH2 as low carbon or clean.

🎩 by simply removing from emission calculations what makes it so damaging for the climate (methane leakage)

@hansbot

It also highlights the utter folly of the fantastical idea that #BlueH2 can somehow make #hydrogen clean in a practical and affordable way. And that ignores all the problems it has with dirty emissions leakages.
