As someone who grew up around refineries/what is now called Cancer Alley, we do not want this here. I promise you government and corporate entities do not truly research or care about long-term health effects. I have lost SO MANY friends to cancer 20-30 years old. Stomach, lungs, brain, bones. You can say it’s coincidence, but the math doesn’t add.
I understand that oil/gas refineries are different from mining operations, but the point is that when there’s a buck to be made, no one cares about the long-term health of workers and locals.
