Public record of Targa, our April #PolluterOfTheMonth shows: -277 emissions exceedances in NM in early 2024. -At least 16 methane super-emitter plumes in 2025. -Nearly $5.5 million in penalties since 2020. Methane accountability still has a long way to go.

Colorado is strengthening methane rules and considering new limits on toxic pollution. These actions can help protect communities, but more work is still needed. ⚠️🌎 ➡️ bit.ly/Cut-Methane-CO #Methane #EnvironmentalJustice #CleanAir

Targa says it has methane reduction plans. But its facilities have repeatedly made headlines for excess emissions, regulatory investigations, & pollution events caught from space. Methane accountability doesn’t stop at setting goals — swipe through to see why Targa is April's #PolluterOfTheMonth.

#NewMexico just made polluters pay for #CleanAir by increasing its polluter fee updates for the first time since 2009! This #EnvironmentalJustice win was built by a coalition and alongside hundreds of everyday New Mexicans💪🏿💪🏾💪🏽💪🏼 bit.ly/Historic-NME...

States still have the power to cut methane pollution, even when federal action falls short. Strong state rules can protect air quality, public health, and the climate. ✊💚 ➡️ bit.ly/Cut-Methane-... #CutMethane #CleanAir #ClimateAction

CO is taking action to cut methane pollution, even as federal protections face challenges. Strong state rules can help protect public health and reduce emissions. 🌍💚 ➡️ bit.ly/Cut-Methane-CO #CutMethane #CleanAir #ClimateAction

April’s #PolluterOfTheMonth: Targa Resources, one of the largest gas companies in the US. With emissions exceedances & super-emitter plumes seen by satellite, Targa's track record raises questions. When methane pollution keeps surfacing, it’s time to take a closer look. Artwork by Deedee Cheriel.

Methane pollution rules for oil and gas are still in place, even amid attacks on EPA authority. These protections remain critical for climate and public health. 📊🌱 ➡️ bit.ly/Cut-Methane-... #CutMethane #CleanAir #ClimateAction

14 families & an elementary school in the Galeton, CO had to be evacuated bc a Chevron well blewout in ’25. It’s right that Chevron pays $1.5M in fines to clean up their mess, but no amount of $$ can undo the harm done to those kids and community. ➡️ bit.ly/4sSQlfk

Trump's mineral deals could lock in an extractive, anti-development model that undermines labor rights, environmental protections, and sovereignty across the planet, all in the interest of Big Tech billionaires and other corporate special interests.

New Mexico has a rare opportunity to strengthen air protection. March 23–25, in Santa Fe, state leaders will consider requiring oil and gas companies to pay the real cost of monitoring and enforcement. Speak up for clean air: bit.ly/NMEDTakeActi...

Here we see a black plume of steady emissions from a flare at an Energy Transfer plant in Carlsbad, NM. It represents a continuous release of methane and other VOCs, all of which create harmful air pollution in the surrounding area. Learn more: biggaspolluters.org/polluter-of-...

Scientists agree that microplastics are everywhere. They're in our oceans, our food, and even in our bodies. 🌊🥗🧠 There’s no debating it. WE NEED LESS PLASTIC, MORE REAL SOLUTIONS NOW. ⚠️🚨 @earthworks.bsky.social #microplastics #healthylife #plasticfree

Millions in penalties. Massive methane waste. Repeated failures seen from on the ground AND from space. The numbers tell the story. This is the cost of weak rules and unchecked pipeline pollution and why Energy Transfer is our this month's #PolluterOfTheMonth. https://bit.ly/4qdx6eP

Nearly a year after a well blowout upended the community of Galeton, CO, the state agency charged with regulating oil and gas is proposing a $1.53M penalty against Noble Energy, the Chevron subsidiary who owns the well. Read the full story: www.denverpost.com/2026/02/24/c...

Even when producers clean up operations, pipeline companies can undo that progress by venting and leaking gas downstream. Energy Transfer — one of the largest gas pipeline operators in the country — is a clear example and our #PolluterOfTheMonth.

Good news alert! Late last year, PA's Environmental Quality Board took an important step toward expanding the distance between new gas drilling sites & homes, schools, & hospitals. We need to demand the Department of Environmental Protection advance this NOW. Time, like peoples' health, is precious.

We're back with February's #PolluterOfTheMonth: Energy Transfer, which moves nearly a third of US gas & keeps getting caught venting methane along the way. We’re calling out the infrastructure company helping methane pollution spread: https://bit.ly/4qdx6eP Featuring artwork by Indie 184!

New FT reporting shows more than 80 significant methane-emission events across PA & WV — linked to major gas producers incl EQT, Expand Energy, & Berkshire Hathaway Energy. The #BigGasPolluters analysis found repeated methane releases large enough to be a super-emitter: https://bit.ly/4abCbiY

The oil & gas industry and government MUST DO MORE to #cutmethane. New tools, new data: same story. @gasleaksproject.bsky.social & Earthworks analyzed @carbonmapper.bsky.social satellites of 80+ major pollution events in WV & PA from 2024-25. Via @financialtimes.com bit.ly/WvPaMethane

5 new ways oil and gas polluters could be getting a free pass in 2026. From delayed methane rules to ending emissions data collection, the Trump administration is systematically rolling back safeguards that protect public health, taxpayers, and our climate.

Trump is launching a new wave of trade talks to secure access to other countries' “critical minerals.” No accountability. No public input. More harm to communities and the environment. Congress must assert its authority, now.

The Consolidated Mining Standard would erode oversight and harm communities, Indigenous Peoples, and the environment. Learn how 🔗 www.miningstandardsaccountability.org.

1 year of Trump: Disaster & determination to rebuild. Despite Trumps many successes to put polluters and billionaires before everyday people, local leaders and communities are standing up. Read more - bit.ly/4a4RLge

A new year. Same methane problem. Stronger accountability. Since Trump took office, federal agencies have delayed, weakened, or moved to eliminate key methane safeguards, from pollution fees to emissions reporting. In response, a coalition of organizations is stepping in to fill the gaps.

Methane is often sold as “natural gas.” But when it leaks, it’s one of the most powerful climate pollutants there is. At #BigGasPolluters, we track methane pollution because it’s frequently underreported, hard to detect, & deeply harmful to our climate and our health. ➡️ BigGasPolluters.org.

#BigGasPolluters was created to hold fossil fuel companies accountable at a moment when regulation is being weakened. We connect satellite data, on-the-ground investigations, & peer-reviewed science to show what oil & gas companies are actually doing — not just what they say. ➡️ BigGasPolluters.org

Our #PolluterOfTheMonth, EQT Corporation, says it’s “Net Zero.” But that claim only covers a fraction of its pollution — not the gas it sells, not the leaks from its pipelines. And what about the methane that satellites keep catching above its sites? Learn more: https://bit.ly/3Kn9bL8

ICYMI: The GOP is trying to pass Permitting Reform legislation that would gut protections for Tribes and communities to oppose strip mining and oil and gas drilling. These lands have been protected by Tribal treaty rights since the 19th Century. How is this America First?

The Senate voted yesterday to reverse EPA’s delay on #cutmethane rules. People everywhere support cutting pollution. Yet the vote failed, 46-51 with all Rs opposing. Ty to the Senators putting people before pollution. Shame to all who give handouts to oil & gas pollution billionaires.

The numbers tell the story — and it’s not the one our #PolluterOfTheMonth, TotalEnergies, wants you to hear. From repeated methane emissions to pollution near homes and schools, the company’s claims for deploying real-time methane detection crumble under real data. More ➡️ https://bit.ly/4ofiCuI
