Europe Gas Crisis has Dialed Back ‘Responsible’ LNG in U.S.

Once upon a time, a few years ago, Europe turned its nose up to American "fracked" gas as filthy and vile, preferring to buy its gas from Vladimir Putin instead. American companies fell all over themselves to win the love of arrogant Europeans for our natural gas--primarily by "proving" our gas (turned into LNG) is "responsible." Responsible gas certification programs appeared overnight and have been adopted by most (if not all) of the major drillers in the Marcellus/Utica (see 60% of Certified NatGas Will Come from M-U by End of 2022). Then Russia invaded Ukraine and Putin began to throttle gas supplies to Europe in retaliation for Europe sanctioning Russia. Now Europe can't get enough of American "fracked" gas--and they don't particularly care if the gas has a "responsible" label on it or not!
