I work there now. Most of what you call pollution is actually steam. And while there is pollution that comes from the refinery all the time, it is actually one of the cleanest refineries on earth. If you are concerned with the pollution so much then get a bike, carpool, or take a bus or train. Become part of the solution, not a whining part of the problem.
