His study on the greenhouse footprint was published just weeks before the World LNG Summit in Berlin started, where different corporations are pushing for more LNG being used as a so-called bridge technology to cover energy needs during the European transition to renewable energies. While it comes as no surprise that LNG will also further add to climate change as a fossil fuel, the fact that it is even worse than coal, from which Germany has started transitioning away much quicker, provides facts to support the argument that the European focus on LNG as a source of energy is a massive misjudgment. In conversation with Radio Corax, Robert Howarth explains what the results of the study mean and which aspects surround this issue.
