More propaganda to shut down coal fired power plants.

Last time I checked, Texas is a BIG state. I wonder if they figured in the carbon dioxide produced from all the Texas wildfires?

You see the impact of these stats used even on speed limits in metro areas in an effort to supposedly reduce emissions. An example is the 17 DFW/Houston area counties that have a mandated 5 mph reduction in the normal 70 & 65 speed limits.

Since the most prominent “greenhouse gas” in the atmosphere is water vapor, is this a bad thing, or is this just silly nonsense?

"It highlights the need to take action, especially considering the extreme weather we have seen lately," said Luke Metzger, director of Environment Texas, an advocacy group.

The combination of hubris and foolishness among these people is staggering.

And if they asked the average Texan, they’d quickly find out three things:

A) That 99.999999% (or more) of Texans don’t give two hoots in Hell about what some enviro-whacko thinks.
B) That they are really glad that they have the coal-fired plants and oil industry, because they mean JOBS, and a decentl standard of living for so many.
C)That if anyone tries to screw with those, they’re gonna have a humdinger of a fight on their hands.

Way down in the data it says the refineries produce 13% of emissions in state - what percent comes from autos? The data has no compared to what? If we have twice as many power plants, and refineries, as Calif how come our air is cleaner!!!
