natural gas burns cleaner than any other fossil fuel but it is the fracking that is dirty and releases methane which is 80x worse than carbon dioxide.  It pollutes the ground water with chemicals and sucks water from the environment.   Those living near fracking wells have their water polluted and are made ill.  That is why an ever growing number of countries, regions and counties have banned the process.  The deal with FortisBC Tilbury in Delta BC will provide Hawaii with fracked gas.  Now the process of making the LNG from the natural gas involves more leakage of methane so the contribution of the so-called "clean" fuel to GHG's is high.  Given that climate change requires us to lower GHG's the use of LNG is not good.  Fortunately for BC the market is so bad for LNG that hopefully none of the 20 projects proposed will go ahead given the investment is so high.  I hope Hawaii shows commonsense and does not get involved with the LNG industry.
