Governments around the world cannot continue to look the other way as fossil fuel CEOs sacrifice frontline communities like those in Louisiana and Texas,\u201d said John No\u00ebl, Senior Climate Campaigner at Greenpeace USA. \u201cThe reckless expansion of oil and gas expansion in the Permian Basin and Gulf South stands to overshadow any environmental progress made by the Biden administration to date. The stunning amount of new LNG export deals being made underscores the climate hypocrisy of the Biden era. We cannot meaningfully address the climate crisis while simultaneously sanctioning limitless production and export of oil and gas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the European Union, where Permian Basin imports are detrimental to climate targets, planned gas exports include Mexico, as well as to East Asia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast year\u2019s gas bonanza is threatening us with geopolitical instability. Mexico\u2019s new planned pipeline will not simply import U.S. gas, but it will deliver a blow to Latin American sovereignty, granting foreign oil and gas companies a foothold in our affairs, it will also imply that Mexico will assemble Permian LNG exports, absorbing environmental and social liabilities,\u201d warned Gustavo Ampugnani, Executive Director at Greenpeace Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>Other carbon bombs that are being tapped following last year\u2019s assault on Kyiv include Australia\u2019s Woodside gas fields in the Burrup Hub project, which poses multiple risks to marine ecosystems, including UNESCO-listed marine parks and endangered whale and turtle habitats, with imports planned as far as Germany.<\/p>\n<p>In the Democratic Republic of Congo, in the relentless expansion of the fossil fuel industry and only two months after Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine, the government had launched a massive auction of 30 oil and gas blocks, overlapping Indigenous lands and peatlands, threatening the release of at least 3 billion tonnes of carbon \u2013 more than the entire annual emissions of European Union countries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe expansion of the fossil fuel industry is a perpetuation of conflict and injustice elsewhere.
