U.S. energy officials are rebranding domestic natural gas as freedom gas and molecules of freedom while promoting its export around the world.

The bizarre language was used in a press release by the Energy Department on Tuesday, announcing that it has authorized increasing liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports from a Gulf Coast terminal near Freeport, Texas.

Increasing export capacity from the Freeport LNG project is critical to spreading freedom gas throughout the world by giving Americas allies a diverse and affordable source of clean energy, said U.S. Undersecretary of Energy Mark W. Menezes in a statement.
