A new investigative report reveals how the state oil and gas agency,
the Railroad Commission of Texas (RRC), is on track to authorize venting or
flaring an unprecedented 3.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas by the end of the decade — enough to fuel every residential gas customer in Texas for over 15 years. The RRC's permitting decisions enable extensive flaring activities, adversely affecting Texas's air quality, public health, and climate.

and Rio Grande International Study Center (RGISC).
