The Speaking of Travel + Gulf Coast Love Story series with Dayna Reggero of the Climate Listening Project is a platform to keep you informed on what's happening in one of the most beautiful and vulnerable areas, The Gulf Coast. The Climate Listening project is in the Gulf Coast region listening to artists and activists working together for Dayna's new film, The Gulf Coast Love Story. The Gulf is beautiful and rich with beaches and bayous. But there's also cancer alley and dangerous oil rigs. Now there are 20+ LNG export terminals proposed along the Gulf Coast. These are huge liquid natural gas export facilities where all the pipelines bring the gas to the coast to ship it overseas with fossil fuel companies profiting billions. It's dangerous. Our special guest is Joshua Duttweiler of Corpus Christi, Texas. Joshua was selected for the collaborative Coastal Alliance to Protect our Environment (CAPE) artist activist grant to create community art for Corpus Christi / Coastal Bend activism in collaboration with groups like Texas Campaign for the Environment. Joshua is a designer, artist, and educator. His multi-disciplinary practice encompasses personal, collaborative, and client-based projects focused on social justice and community building.  Connect via GulfCoastMurals.com for more information.

The flimsy hit piece on Paxton from Hearst actually lets the real story be known in this little snippet buried in the bottom portion:“Texas has limited options when it comes to financial repercussions — it can put a hold on candidates' and elected officials' financial accounts with the state, if they have them — but unlike other states, it can't levy tax liens or garnish wages. If that isn't effective, it must decide whether to file a civil suit requesting a judge to order payment.“Even this, Texas' most aggressive tool for pursuing delinquent filers, is seldom effective…”So much for the narrative the headline and upper portion try to set.
