A recent feature on the residents of Port Arthur, Texas have found that the small town has some of the dirtiest air in the United States due to the concentration of oil refineries. As Texas has been under the control of Governor Rick Perry for almost 11 years, many are saying that the blame for the air pollution in the region – and elsewhere throughout Texas – falls on his lap.
Now that Perry is running for President, the question we must ask ourselves is, what kind of environmental regulation could we expect from him in the White House? Watch the video below to see how poor air quality has affected Port Arthur.
