@ProPublica I've been to the oil fields of Texas many times even recently. It's absolutely disgusting the air is thick with the stench of various chemicals and the sky tends to have a haze.

Oh yeah there's also tons of methane flaring.

But sure it's clean lmao, ironically Texas doesead the nation in wind energy but that doesn't seem to be a focus this admin.
