Gas

Gas is not a “bridge fuel”. In order to prevent a catastrophic climate crisis, we must stop depending on fossil fuels including gas and oil. The environmental impact of gas extraction and development is massive. For example fracking, a method of gas extraction, has been banned in many countries due to its serious environmental impact. The pipelines used to transport the gas are often laid on Indigenous Peoples’ lands, and human rights violations against Indigenous Peoples have also been reported.
