Liquifying The Gulf Coast: A cumulative impact assessment of LNG buildout in Louisiana and Texas

7 May 2024

“Liquefying the Gulf Coast” examines how liquefied natural gas production disproportionately harms low-income communities and communities of color in Lousiana and Texas. The report examines the social, environmental, economic, and health impacts of liquefied natural gas (LNG) development in the Gulf Coast region. The report also provides recommendations to government and regulatory agencies, including prioritizing community input, improving environmental justice analyses, completing a comprehensive climate assessment of LNG, updating safety standards, and continuing the Biden Administration's LNG Pause until Public Interest Determinations are made.
