Biden's Approval of Alaska Gas Exports Sparks Climate Concerns

The Biden administration has approved exports of liquefied natural gas from the Alaska LNG project, a move criticized by environmental groups as another "carbon bomb". The project, which was first approved by the Trump administration, is expected to be operational by 2030. The Biden administration is trying to approve more US LNG exports as it competes with Russia, but critics say the Ukraine conflict is a "false justification" for a rush to natural gas. The approval of the project cleared the way for additional lawsuits seeking to stop the project.
