in terms of GHG impact, that's not true

CH4 extraction, transportation and storage suffers from lots of fugitive emissions, CH4 has a short term CO2e of about 22x

Holistically, the entire process is worse than coal. The only thing that's "cleaner then coal" is the amount of CO2 produced at the burning stage, proponents have taken that misguided fact and used it to help enable the destruction of the biosphere
