Environmental activists and community organizers have successfully pressured the Biden administration to pause the approval of new liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals. Young activists on TikTok played a role in drawing attention to the issue, while a coalition of manufacturers, chemical companies, and consumer advocates also supported the pause. They argue that increased LNG exports would make the price of natural gas more unpredictable, hurting households and industries that rely on the fuel. The pause will allow the administration to study the relationship between exports and domestic prices, as well as consider climate and environmental impacts.
