Texas Commission on Environmental Quality’s Post

Do you know an individual or organization that goes above and beyond to help preserve and protect the Texas environment? Nominate them for a Texas Environmental Excellence Award! 🏆 https://loom.ly/f9VuBOY #TEEA

I would like to nominate "SAVE RGV" org that is dedicated to protecting the diverse eco-system of the Rio Grande wetlands and coastline, home to several endangered animals. They are committed to stopping LNG development from polluting this thriving community adjacent to Texas best beach #southpadreisland, known for it's world class eco-tourism (ie birding, fishing, turtle rescue). Unfortunately, #TCEQ has failed in their position to review the impact of the largest LNG plant to be built at the Port of Brownsville-- resulting in Greenhouse gas POLLUTION. Methane is 85x more potent than carbon dioxide in the first 20yrs after it is emitted. With this knowledge and current #globalwarming data, TCEQ approves NextDecade's "Air Permits"?!? I am curious in your org chart, who had the most influence on accessing the area. Look at a simple map, and TCEQ could determine the population most affected by these LNG factories are in: SPI, Port Isabel, Laguna Heights, Laguna Vista....yet they failed to do so. Do better. #climatechange #ferc
