New Green party leader, oops, new NDP leader Avi Lewis will get a better response from the #BCGreens party leader @emilylowan.bsky.social than from #MrMethane Subsidize #FossilFuels for more #bcwildfires #bcheatDomes #bcfloods #bcdroughts #bcndp leader David Eby

The Arctic is warming 4 times faster than the global average! Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is a threat to the Arctic Black carbon (BC) Nitrogen oxides (NOx) Carbon dioxide (CO2) Shipping emissions are accelerating global warming. On route to shipping decarbonisation... In an effort to reduce black carbon and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, shipping is looking to move away from oil based fuels. However some alternatives including Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), are still fossil fuels. ...but LNG must not be part of the solution. LNG is predominantly made up of methane, a short-lived climate forcer more potent than CO2. ! H H C H H Methane is a dangerously potent greenhouse gas (CH4). It has a warming effect up to more powerful than CO2 over a 20 year period (GWP20). ! ! Emissions from LNG-fueled ships grew by between 2012 to 2018. The pathway of methane emissions from LNG fuel When burned by ships, LNG releases methane and other pollutants into the atmosphere. Additionally, the process of extracting, processing, and transporting of LNG results in methane leakage. These activities can also cause significant environmental impacts including habitat destruction, water pollution, and climate heating. Global heating is speeding the Arctic permafrost thaw The fragile Arctic permafrost ecosystem already under threat from global heating could be reaching a global tipping point. Arctic terrestrial permafrost contains 2x carbon as in the atmosphere. As the Arctic heats up, shallow permafrost starts to thaw. Thawing permafrost releases CO2 and CH4 into the atmosphere. Released CO2 and CH4 add to the global burden of GHGs - speeding global warming. Burning LNG as fuel adds to the acceleration of Arctic permafrost thaw and a potential and irreversible tipping point being reached. Produced by the Clean Arctic Alliance - www.cleanarctic.org and designed by Margherita Gagliardi - September 2024 The alarming rise in LNG puts the Arctic at a crossroads LNG production LNG use The United Sta…
