Environmentalists Keep Gas Prices High, IL Refinery Delayed
Photo courtesy Akuppa.
Environmentalists in Illinois have pushed a plan for a new refinery back to the drawing board. It seems the refinery will be performing “flaring”, a process by which excess waste in the plant is burned off and carbon dioxide is released. While the state of Illinois doesn’t have a particular emissions standard for flaring, environmentalists are pushing the state to adopt one similar to California. So let me get this straight: the refinery will do nothing illegal or outside of regulations and yet the environmentalists are insisting the plans be redrawn? When did these ecolibs start making the rules?
