Entire sections of wetlands are being filled in and paved over to build LNG export terminals, which will ship fracked gas to Europe and Asia. But with such large amounts of gas now shipped abroad, gas markets in the U.S.

As recently as 2019, the global market for liquefied natural gas (LNG) looked bright. Analysts saw demand for LNG in Asia rising in both a steady and unrelenting fashion, expanding for years or even decades into the future. and importing countries to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions,” the NRDC said in its December report.
