Major Takeaways from LyondellBasell Permit Meeting: 🏭💨 They are NOT shutting down but “modifying” operations 🔥🥤 They want to burn plastic and call it recycling 🤨 The application is to RENEW an existing even though it’s a new type of facility — that’s weird #DenythePermit

NEW from Jen Hadayia @airalliancehou.bsky.social & me: 69% of voters oppose the EPA's new "just email Trump" loophole for polluters. Trump's deregulatory actions don’t happen in a vacuum -- they have very real & harmful impacts, esp. in a place like Houston. www.dataforprogress.org/insights/202...
Bar chart of polling data from Data For Progress.
Title: Voters Across Party Lines Believe All Companies Should Be Required to Follow Clean Air Act Rules, Without Exemptions.
Description: Recently, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency created a new rule that allows companies to email President Trump directly to request an exemption from following air pollution rules that are currently required by the Clean Air Act. Which statement comes closer to your view, even if neither is exactly right?
Response Options:
A) All companies should be required to follow air pollution rules required by the Clean Air Act.
B) Don't know
C) Individual companies should be allowed to request a direct exemption from President Trump to avoid following air pollution rules required by the Clean Air Act.
All likely voters — 69% chose A, 9% chose B, 23% chose C
Democrat — 78% chose A, 7% chose B, 16% chose C
Independent / Third party — 70% chose A, 10% chose B, 20% chose C
Republican — 59% chose A, 10% chose B, 31% chose C

April 7–8, 2025 survey of 1,196 U.S. likely voters.

The plan, developed with foundation funds and community input, sets sustainable urban objectives. It does not yet define how Harris County will get there.
