Hello Houston – The Commuter Cut (May 20, 2025)

In today’s edition of “The Commuter Cut,” Ernie, Frank, and Celeste talk with the Mayor of Katy William "Dusty" Thiele, who discusses what he would like to focus on during his next term as mayor after taking the oath of office last Wednesday.

Then, we discuss the Energy Star program and why it's at risk with Johanna Neumann, the Senior Director of Campaign for 100% Renewable Energy at the Environment America Research & Policy Center.

Plus, we learn more about Discovery Green’s Art Lab and a new pop-up art installation that will be coming soon to the park from Karen Navarro, a Houston-based artist and a former Discovery Green Art Lab Fellow and Discovery Green artistic director Susanne Theis.
