"TikTok Activist Advises White House on Biden's Natural Gas Moratorium, Sparking Bipartisan Pushback"

TikTok activist Alex Haraus, known for his climate change advocacy, claims to have advised the White House on President Biden's decision to pause major liquefied natural gas (LNG) export projects. Haraus, who met with White House officials and environmental activists, argues that LNG has a dirtier carbon footprint than coal and that the U.S. already exports "enough" to allies. The White House and Department of Energy have announced a pause on permitting for all pending LNG export terminals over climate impacts, a move cheered by environmentalists but criticized by Republicans and energy industry groups.
