Your most toxic & scary neighbor might not be who you think it is…👀

Too many California neighborhoods are littered with oil wells. Whether they’re actively pumping oil or long since run dry - all wells can leak toxic emissions, even when operating by the book.  Profit-hungry fossil fuel companies don’t care about the mess they make or the people and communities that suffer. Spending time near oil & gas drilling has been linked to a whole host of harmful health impacts including asthma, respiratory diseases, preterm births, and even cancer.

🔍More than 2 MILLION Californians live within a half mile of an oil well. Find out if you or your loved ones live, work, or play near an active or idle well by visiting bit.ly/oil-drilling-map also linked in our bio! And tell us what you find in the comments ⬇️
