In a desperate attempt to emulate the months long protests over the Dakota Access Pipeline, which have been marred by repeated violence and vandalism, at least two members of the Environmentalist Left were arrested after protesting the construction of the Trans-Pecos Pipeline in West Texas:

After the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries made news earlier this week by saying that they plan to reduce oil production, Texas shale drillers rejoiced since the decision will lead to increased oil production and higher profitability for crude producers in the U.S:

In news that should excite energy developers in Texas and across the country, the U.S. Geological Survey reports that the newly discovered Wolfcamp shale in Texas’ Permian Basin is the “largest oil deposit ever found in the U.S.”:

As part of a nationwide day of action, protesters from the Environmentalist Left took to the streets to protest the $3.8 billion, 1,200-mile long Dakota Access Pipeline being constructed by Dallas-based energy company Energy Transfer Partners.

The Environmentalist Left’s crusade to “Keep It In The Ground,” by placing a ban on fracking for oil and natural gas could leave 1.6 million Texans without a job.

Earthworks is once again defying logic and science, determined to push its radically out-of-touch environmental agenda onto Texans with yet another erroneous report.
