I can make the argument that if you lose those coal fields in the northeast and you lose the ability to have the power that they currently produce, you can never replace that.
I think it's a great opportunity for this country to have a conversation about the climate and get the politics out of it and bring the scientists together.
I think it's a clean-burning fuel that every molecule of LNG that we can get into the market displacing older, inefficient coal-burning plants in Europe, for instance, is a win for the climate.
If we continue to export clean-burning natural gas, we drive down CO2 levels.
