EU methane rules: an energy security shield under threat 🛡️
The #EUMethaneRegulation is intended to strengthen the continent’s energy security. However, industry lobbying and inadequate implementation are jeopardising this important tool in the fight against gas waste.

📢 EU leaders: preserve the integrity of the #EUMethaneRegulation!
Ahead of the Antwerp summit and the informal EU leaders’ retreat, it is essential to remind that strong #methane rules strengthen the EU's energy security, competitiveness, and affordability
Check our Joint Civil Society Statement 👇
👉 No more excuses. Full implementation of the #EUMethaneRegulation is key for health, climate, and energy security, and a necessary step toward phasing out #fossilgas. Civil society is watching. Check the CSO-M Methane tracker here

🚨 EU: protect Methane Rules! 🚨
An NGO coalition of 24 signatories sent a letter to the Commission and EU Energy Ministers urging strong implementation of the #EUMethaneRegulation. Amid pressure from industry and the US to bypass methane rules, the import framework must not be weakened 👇
🚨Report Launch: Penalty Regimes for Violations of the EU Methane Regulation in selected EU Member States🚨
✍️ Written by @piria.bsky.social of @ecologic.eu, supported by CAN Europe, it uncovers how clear and robust penalty rules are key for the #EUMethaneRegulation ’s success.

With methane emissions rising globally & the #LNGWorldSummit approaching next week, EU must confront the true cost of methane. It’s time to enforce the #EUMethaneRegulation, resist the US fossil gas expansion agenda & phase out fossil gas by 2035.

🔥 Methane matters, and the EU can lead the energy transition by cutting emissions! The #EUMethaneRegulation can help transform global energy markets, but with calls for deregulation, strong enforcement is vital. Methane experts met in Brussels to discuss why.

🚨 Happening now in Brussels! 👉 Our high-level Roundtable on Methane action for the EU’s energy transition has just kicked off. On the spotlight: the #EUMethaneRegulation: tackling implementation challenges and reinforcing EU leadership in global methane reduction 🇪🇺
🇪🇺 Time for the EU to lead on climate ambition: cutting methane from the energy sector can deliver the fastest climate benefits this decade and improve public health. EU, implement the #EUMethaneRegulation and phase out fossil gas by 2035!

💨 The Gulf South Fossil Finance Hub is uniting over 100 frontline leaders to challenge the funders enabling the poisoning of local ecosystems and the air people depend on. Europe must act too! The first step to phasing out fossil gas is implementing the #EUMethaneRegulation.

🔥Europe’s fossil gas imports are fuelling war and driving environmental destruction! 🇺🇦 The Ukrainian experience is revealing the true cost of Europe’s fossil gas addiction.
⏳Time to fully implement the #EUMethaneRegulation and #PhaseOutFossilGas !

What should the EU do to protect communities and ecosystems worldwide?
✔️ Phase out fossil gas by 2035
✔️ Protect and fully implement the #EUMethaneRegulation!

The EU must choose people over fossil fuels:
✔️ Commit to a full fossil gas phase-out by 2035
✔️ Fully protect and implement the #EUMethaneRegulation
#CutMethane #TheCostOfMethane #BeyondGas

The science is clear: Methane poses serious health risks and the fossil fuels sector is a major source🔥
The #EUMethaneRegulation must be fully implemented to cut emissions, including those from imported energy. And we need a full fossil gas phase-out by 2035 ❗

✊The #EUMethaneRegulation is a chance to cut emissions at home and abroad.
Europe must:
✅ Implement fully
✅ Resist weakening attempts
✅ Cover all fossil fuel imports

⏳ 1 year since the #EUMethaneRegulation came into force. As members of the European Civil Society Observatory on Methane, we’re turning up the pressure for real results - and real methane cuts! 💪 Let’s deliver.

Another import contract for #LNG from the US is in the making.
Once again, it's a company owned by the German state: #Uniper.
These contracts will need to meet the new import requirements that are part of the #EUMethaneRegulation. Would love to know if/how that is mentioned in the agreement...
Wraz z NGO z Europy wezwaliśmy komisarzy🇪🇺 ds. klimatu @wopkehoekstra.ec.europa.eu i Dana Jorgensena by nie ulegali presji 🇺🇸 i nie osłabiali zapisów #EUMethaneRegulation
#Emisje metanu rosną📈 napędzając #kryzysklimatyczny🌍 Rozporządzenie metanowe może je ograniczyć.
