The U.S. is exporting a record amount of natural gas, and it’s already having domestic consequences. :
Many American households may face significantly higher heating bills this winter, thanks to record U.S. exports of natural gas amid a global supply shortage. The Wall Street Journal reports that the domestic price of natural gas is already on the rise, for only the second time since the U.S. firms began exporting shale gas abroad in 2016. U.S. suppliers have transported a record amount of natural gas out of the country this year.
