As I told Jordan Blum at , we need to stop picking winners and losers and start focusing on reducing emissions.

Clean, affordable, and reliable natural gas plays a pivotal role in supporting renewables to drive down global emissions and build our clean energy future.

Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro is spot on: when it comes to America’s energy policy, we don’t have to choose between protecting jobs and our environment.

By embracing a decarbonization strategy that includes natural gas and renewables, we can accomplish both.

Great discussion with Sonal Patel at CERAWeek on Natural Allies for a Clean Energy Future’ efforts to educate members of Congress and leaders across America about the realities our energy system faces and the importance of natural gas and renewables working together to meet our global climate goals.

10/ Thanks to Tim Ryan's leadership – promoting commonsense bipartisan solutions that reduce carbon emissions globally thru the partnership between natural gas and renewables – we can accelerate our clean energy future and ensure access to reliable and affordable energy for all.

9/ The reality is LNG demand will continue to grow. We can either meet that demand with the cleanest U.S. natural gas in the world, or let it be filled by coal or from countries like Russia, Iran or Qatar, which lack the environmental safeguards here in the United States.

8/ The problem is that when extreme groups like the Sierra Club work to block natural gas infrastructure, they create major problems, which lead to higher carbon emissions, higher costs for ratepayers, and higher risks of blackouts.

7/ And despite this growth in LNG abroad, domestic natural gas supplies at the primary trading point known as Henry Hub have remained stable and low, other than brief storm related disruptions and the Ukraine invasion.

6/ The U.S. has become the world’s largest natural gas supplier, helping allies abroad with secure energy supplies. That’s good news because the U.S. also has the strictest regulations to ensure the cleanest gas in the world. reuters.com/business/energ…

5/ A recent study found converting the world’s dirtiest coal fired power plants would cut global emissions by 30%. But giving nations the confidence to convert to cleaner power generation requires a stable, reliable source.

US LNG is that option. bit.ly/4aBRLBT

4/ Emissions across Asia are growing due to coal use without a secure abundant natural gas supply, while emissions across the United States and Europe are declining. nyti.ms/3IZfsZ5

3/ And even though China leads the world in solar installations, it’s clear that renewable sources need a foundational source of energy to fill the gaps when the sun doesn’t shine and the wind doesn’t blow. bloom.bg/4aw0mXr

2/ When there is no stable and secure natural gas supply, the world burns coal for its power needs.

Look no further than India, China, and Indonesia, which are burning a significant amount of coal to keep up with the growth of their economies. bloom.bg/4cFIk6s

1/ FACT: EIA data shows +60% of US CO2 emission reductions came from natural gas replacing coal since '05.

Tim Ryan is a pragmatic Democrat voice who knows partnering & renewables is a proven strategy that protects reliability & affordability. bit.ly/4azT0lg

Enjoyed watching my Natural Allies for a Clean Energy Future colleague, Tim Ryan, discuss the pivotal role natural gas can play in decarbonization at home and abroad on Bill Maher’s Real Time with Bill Maher.

Democrats must take notice of the environmental and political consequences of President Biden’ LNG decision.

.President Biden’ disastrous decision to pause permits on new US LNG terminals will increase our allies’ reliance on carbon-intensive coal – a major setback on our path to a clean energy future.

Like & RT if you agree is part of the solution to achieving our global climate goals!

At , my Natural Allies for a Clean Energy Future colleagues and I examined similar challenges the renewable and natural gas industries are facing and stressed how they cannot build enough energy infrastructure to meet clean energy demand. Permitting reform is critical to reach our climate goals.

Looking forward to joining my Natural Allies for a Clean Energy Future colleagues in our nation’s capital next Tuesday at Williams’ Clean Energy Expo for an important discussion on how the partnership between natural gas and renewables can help us reach our climate goals faster.
