CNX Resources spent most of 2024 promoting its “Radical Transparency” program, but the only thing transparent about this company is the gas spewing from its operations – good thing Earthworks methane detecting cameras can see through their PR tricks. This polluter has had a prolific end to 2024, including a pollution event, captured by EDF’s MethaneSAT Satellite, pumping out methane at a rate of 1000 kgs per hour – the weight of an adult American Bison every hour. One hour at that rate has more of a climate impact than you could produce after 18 years of driving (based on a vehicle that gets 22.2 miles per gallon and drives 11,500 miles per year). Good luck out-polluting these guys.

Not-so-Radical Transparency:
CNX’s public claims about “Radical Transparency” are yet another attempt by polluters to downplay their impacts rather than work toward meaningful change. You can learn more about the claims and efforts to ground truth on the Fractracker Alliance’s “Not-So-Radical Transparency” page.
