Excellent post, Kira. I feel the inaction for climate change in my bones. These petro-ghouls are systematically destroying our planet piece by invisible piece.

Regarding methane - there are thousands of abandoned wells all over Texas and Oklahoma that are currently spewing methane unabated! The oil companies don’t want to spend the money to clean up the mess they made…so they just leave their shit for someone else to clean up…and the earth boils.

There is nothing being done by the Terrible Texas Three to deal with this situation…they ignore it and their cult members living there eat it up with a spoon.

Could not agree more with you regarding the significant need for We the People to demand change. Our leaders are impotent on climate change. Time to end the lip service and get to work, dammit.

Methane doesn’t seem to get the level of attention it warrants. Not sure why. Hearing about thousands of leaking, methane puking, old drilling sites being left unattended makes my ass ache.

Abbott the Annihilator does absolutely nothing to deal with the real issues Texans are faced with. He just wants to be King of the Texans.

We have to get rid of these bad actors, just so we can clean up their mess properly.

I am just writing a post about one of those buffoons: Sen. John Kennedy. Thanks for reminding me of Abbott. I will tee him up next!
