A U.S. court just dealt a major blow to a string of giant fossil fuel projects under development in coastal Texas. Earlier this week, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit overturned the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s authorizations for two liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminals at the Port of Brownsville and a related fossil gas pipeline. The court sided with environmentalists and Indigenous leaders in finding that FERC had “erroneously declined” to fully assess the projects’ potential impacts on air quality within nearby marginalized communities.
