AOC Blames Oil Refinery Explosion on ‘Climate Change’

Share:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said Friday night that an explosion at a Philadelphia oil refinery was due to climate change, arguing that the incident underscores the urgency of her Green New Deal.

A vat of butane ignited and eventually exploded around 4:00 AM Friday at the Philadelphia Energy Solutions Refining Complex, followed by a series of smaller explosions as the fire worked its way through a mass of pipes carrying fuel across the complex.

The blast, which injured five workers, was eventually brought under control thanks to the intervention of more than 120 Philadelphia firefighters employing 51 pieces of equipment.
