Transport & Environment (T&E) has demonstrated, using infrared imaging, how Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) ships “release clouds of unburned methane, a potent greenhouse gas.” According to T&E, European politicians “are playing with fire” by promoting the use of LNG, since “methane has an 80 times greater warming effect on the climate than carbon dioxide” (CO2) over a 20-year period. .
