It feels obvious but it's remarkable how rarely we talk about the details of what curbing fossil fuel exports *actually looks like* - and exactly how feasible it is.

Big Gas promised Australians LNG exports would mean plenty of low cost gas and enormous economic benefits.
None of it was true.
Instead we got gas shortages, manufacturing closures higher energy bills and few economic benefits.

Opinion: Canada, don’t make the same mistake with LNG that Australia did
LNG exports exposed Australians to high global gas prices, allowed gas producers to price gouge and drained the country of low-cost gas reserves
