Photographer Annie Flanagan went to Clairton, Pennsylvania, where residents live in the shadow of the country’s largest coke plant. Coke is a product used to manufacture steel. ProPublica’s investigation showed that levels of benzene, a cancer-causing gas, were 37 times higher than what the facility reported in the past. The Trump administration has halted efforts to monitor for benzene near large industrial plants like this one, leaving communities in the dark about the air they breathe. This is what Annie saw — and inhaled — while on assignment in Clairton. #Benzene #Pittsburgh #AirQuality
