"?In Texas, Houston and filthy air have always been synonymous. But the Armpit of Texas has just been dethroned. For concentrated, ozone-laced air pollution, Dallas-Fort Worth has outstripped the country's petrochemical hub as the EPA's worst offender. According to watchdog group Downwinders at Risk, DFW exceeded air-quality standards more often during 2011 than Houston. Striking, no? Automobile pollution certainly plays a role, but not the biggest one. Natural gas production in the Barnett Shale is thought to be the biggest contributor. According to a 2009 study, emissions from all car and truck traffic in the nine-county Metroplex came to 273 tons per day. Emissions from oil and gas production totaled 307 tons per day during peak summer months." Is this Houston? blogs.dallasobserver.com
