The new facility, which exports liquefied natural gas, is one of several like it along the Gulf Coast — and tmore are proposed for Louisiana and Texas. The U.S. has become the world’s largest exporter of LNG, and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine heightened demand for the fuel as countries in Europe cut their reliance on Russian energy. But the U.S. expansion of LNG facilities has come with consequences for Gulf Coast residents threatened by extreme weather, and for the planet threatened by greenhouse gases. Natural gas from the Permian Basin in Texas and other areas is sent by pipeline to the export facilities. It is then cooled and liquefied, making it possible to send much greater quantities by ship to Asia, Europe and other places that are hungry for natural gas.
