Hearken: Question the Air We Breathe

🌅 From the rolling Poconos to the sun-kissed Jersey Shore, Delaware Bay - what's concerning the climate for you? What do you want to know? Drop us a line! 💬

A disturbing pattern is emerging around the Delaware City Refinery - one of the region's top polluters. In a string of recent events, this industrial giant has let loose toxic contaminants into our air. 💣

The latest violation, last month, saw the refinery spewing harmful emissions for a staggering 10 hours straight on March 13th. The offender? A malfunctioning piece of equipment meant to prevent air pollution in the first place. 🤯

You might remember a similar mechanical failure back in April, which caused sulfur dioxide emissions for almost three weeks.

  1. The concerning climate events around Delaware City Refinery, a major polluter, have highlighted the need for more investment in environmental science to combat the impacts of climate-change and improve industry standards in manufacturing and energy.
  2. As the finance sector plays a crucial role in shaping our future, it's important to consider investing in sustainable and clean energy solutions, rather than continuing to fund polluting industries like the Delaware City Refinery that contribute to climate-change and environmental degradation.
  3. Awareness of the climate-change issues, such as the ongoing incidents at the Delaware City Refinery, should prompt the public and government to collaborate in finding solutions and implementing stricter industry regulations to ensure a cleaner and healthier environment for future generations.
