'The new Bureau of Land Management regulation, which applies to nearly 90,000 wells on federal public land, is hampered by math errors and overly optimistic cost projections.'

Meanwhile the industry is drilling new wells like crazy.

Fuuuuuuck!

This is methane. Way worse than CO2. But GOP, please go on about how solar farms are an 'eye sore'.

If people could see oil and gas pollution through my lens, the fracking boom would never have happened.

Chubb North America Is Chubb Climate+ all talk and no action? 🌍 Time to walk the walk by ditching fossil fuels and rolling out a true net zero game plan. Our eyes are on you! #ClimateAction #StopWillow

Citi has invested over $332 billion into fossil fuels and petrochemicals. Instead of learning from their mistakes, and the harm they have inflicted on Black, Latino, Asian, Indigenous, and working class communities, Citi has doubled down on funding these dangerous companies.

Note: much of the Permian is producing and treating sour gas. ‼️

“A compound used to treat sour gas that's been linked to fertility issues in cattle has been found throughout groundwater in the Prairies, according to a new study.”

Meanwhile in the Texas Permian, as they produce more oil the formation gets gassier. Currently, Permian oil is prices at negative $2.99/mmBtu.

Can you guess what that means? Ask me what I saw that satellites didn't see 6 days in mid-March when it was heavily overcast.

Maybe we should consider looking at a company's violations before they get military contracts.

Featuring Oilfield Witness and our work in the Permian.

Note: the 9 min video shows only one actual leak. Also a deep dive into the EPA #methane reveals some giant loopholes.

France needs to stop importing #LNG from the U.S. It's the dirtiest energy there is. Also TotalEnergies is causing harm to the health of Americans. They drill rignt in the middle of homes and next to children. This site releases methane and VOCs so close to where we live.

SAMMinistries has tracked deaths within the unhoused community in #SanAntonio for years. Their CEO thinks #extremeheat may have directly caused dozens of deaths and contributed to even more during 2023’s unprecedented heatwave.

The American Gas Association is using money from your gas bills to support misinformation campaigns and fan the flames of the climate crisis. Your bills shouldn’t have to rise while the temperatures do—that’s why I joined Hot & Toxic powered by Gas Leaks today to call out this issue.

Argentina, you are too late. Methane from U.S. #LNG exports will burn the planet up before you can even get started.

#ClimateCriminals need to be stopped.
