Tell Beaver County Commissioners: Keep Your Community Safe from Shell

What you need to know

Shell, a notorious global oil giant, recently turned on a massive new facility on the Pennsylvania side of the Ohio River Valley. The pollution from this new complex — which converts oil into single-use plastic products — threatens residents’ health, environment, and entire way of life in the Ohio River Valley.

This Shell plant has already been charged with more than a dozen safety violations this year, and had to pay a $10 million fine. Meanwhile, local government officials failed to produce an acceptable emergency preparedness plan and even canceled a town hall event that community members organized for residents to share their concerns.
