EL PASO—For the first time, Texas voters have the chance to write climate action into a city charter. Activists from Sunrise El Paso and Ground Game Texas have written their own climate charter with aggressive renewable energy targets and collected enough signatures to have it placed before voters
Activists worry projects that expand the use of natural gas at such plants encourage long-term reliance on a fossil fuel that is a significant source of methane, a culprit in global warming.
