This episode of EJ Philly explores the legacy of the PES refinery, one of the oldest crude oil processing centers located on the East Coast of the United States. For this segment, we talk to community members and local advocates in Philadelphia. We hear their experiences of residing next to a refinery that has historically had broad impacts on the everyday lives and health of local community members, living on the fence line. We also hear about their hopes for a more just future in the aftermath of the refinery closure in 2019.
