Gas is little less bad as coal..

Great isn't it, Germany secure their energy needs and help Putin gain more power over Europe (the rest of the EU don't like the plan).

And China is getting more gas from Russia also starting in 2019

it is "natural" gas. That sounds less worse.

"But natural gas has a climate downside—it’s mostly composed of methane. “Methane is a potent greenhouse gas,” said energy researcher Adam Brandt of Stanford University. The gas is about 30 times better at holding in the atmosphere’s heat compared with carbon dioxide. So if enough methane leaks during production, natural gas’s slim advantage over other fuels could be wiped out."
