“Clean” U.S. Oil Industry Doesn’t Exist

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported on Donald Trump’s claim that the U.S. oil industry is cleaner than others worldwide. Citing ProPublica, McIntyre explained that new emissions data from Texas wells strongly contradicts Trump’s assertion. While a few wells may operate cleanly, McIntyre emphasized that they are rare exceptions in a largely polluting industry.
