TL;DR Summary

The Biden administration has approved the construction of a $1.8 billion deepwater oil export terminal off the Texas coast, sparking protests from environmentalists who view it as contradictory to President Biden's climate agenda. The Sea Port Oil Terminal, set to be the largest of its kind in the U.S., has received backlash for its potential planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions and environmental impact. Despite the administration's assertion that the project meets national interest and minimal effect on overall U.S. crude oil supply chain emissions, environmental groups and critics argue that the approval undermines efforts to transition away from fossil fuels and combat climate change.
