In this report I will be addressing some of the ecosystem of the aria and its biodiversity. Then I will be discussing some of the economic and social benefits of the refineries, like the jobs and funding they provide. Next there will be a description of the environmental effects, specifically the CO<sub>2\u00a0 <\/sub>that is released and how that effects the local aria. Finally I will present what can happen when a refinery goes un regulated by using the 2010 Tesoro explosion.<\/p>\n<p>See full\u00a0report:\u00a0<a
