Yes, I know it’s not technically just methane, but methane is its primary constituent.

“Fossil gas” is also probably a suitable term, but I like “fossil methane” because it gets that spooky chemical name benefit.

    Also it’s ironically the opposite of what OP was accusing the fuel industry of doing. Instead of green washing they’re trying to Brownwash (greywash? Blackwash?) the term.

      In a lot of cases, winning is what matters, and not moral purity.

      Why shouldn’t a good cause adopt a better name when opposing something?
