NEW: The U.S. #LNG sector is benefitting from a dramatic increase in contracts and approvals for new export terminals since #Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine, part of a global surge in export capacity that is also being led by Russia, Canada, Mexico, and Qatar #ONGT

‼️A global shift away from #coal risks a long-term shift toward #gas

Leapfrog gas and switch to #renewables
✅avoids increased volatility of gas prices & tight supply of imported gas to Asia
✅rapidly declining costs of renewables

US #LNG promoters are in a frenzy to build new terminals.

A cold 💦 🧵 on why this approach is not a solution to meet Europe’s near-term #gas needs.

So, 'How long does it take to build a new LNG export terminal in the US?' /1 https://t.co/D2gp7KWreh #ONGT

A spate of new #gas projects in Europe have sprung up since the invasion of Ukraine. These will only add to the EU’s growing surplus of import capacity and make it impossible to meet net-zero targets. GEM’s new survey has the data https://t.co/niB855Cl44 🧵 /1 #LNG #ONG

Multiple or complex extreme climate events, PLUS human decisions -- a recipe for inefficiencies, but also real chances to improve. In our new paper we survey this & dive into 5 sectors. Honored to have worked with a great team incl. @radleyhorton @ZscheischlerJak @MartiusOlivia

[Dr. Jakob Zscheischler @ZscheischlerJak]

Increased interest in compound weather and climate events created a lot of exciting research recently. The high diversity of events makes it difficult to keep an overview. We reviewed the literature and propose a typology of 4 main classes: https://t.co/8eiomc10MX  1/n
