Feeling a bit uncertain about your job? Recent news shows President-elect Biden to end Keystone XL pipeline in fight on climate change. Biden is expected to soon reverse the efforts of the Trump administration and end a project proposed more than a decade ago. President-elect Joe Biden has outlined an ambitious environmental agenda, centered around a goal of “transitioning away” from the fossil fuel industry.

His proposals — from adopting tougher methane regulations to incentives for Americans to buy cars that do not run on gasoline — could have an outsized impact in Texas, which produces the most crude oil and natural gas in the country.

In some respects, the writing has been on the wall when it comes to the future of environmental policy, and big oil and gas companies were contemplating their role in a net-zero carbon future before Biden’s election.

But in Texas, where small, independent operators play a significant role in oil production, Biden’s policies could pack more of a punch.

Among Biden’s policy proposals:

• Required disclosure of climate risks from public companies.

• A commitment to end new drilling permits for federal lands.

• A pledge to eliminate tax subsidies for the oil and gas industry.
