The Reality of Gloster’s Suffering
A Town in Turmoil
Once a peaceful town, Gloster now grapples with the harsh reality of environmental injustice. Residents have reported breathing difficulties, dizzy spells, rashes, nosebleeds, and burning sensations—all linked to Drax’s harmful emissions.
Voices of the Community
“Myrtis Woodard, a resident suffering from asthma, COPD, and chronic bronchitis, recounts the decline in her health since Drax’s plant began operations in 2014.
“We started getting sick after they put that plant down there,” she says.
The Lingering Effects
Carmella Wren-Causey, another resident, describes the air as smelling like “rotten flesh.” She, too, suffers from COPD and has witnessed her health deteriorate since moving back to her family’s land.
The Innocent Victims
Jasmine Jenkins, a mother, worries about her children’s health. “The air pollution in Gloster is very serious,” she says. “What are me and my kids inhaling? How long will it take us to really figure out something is wrong with us?”
Holding Drax Accountable
A Company in Denial
Drax denies any violations at its Louisiana plants, yet the evidence speaks volumes. The settlements and fines paint a picture of negligence and disregard for the well-being of communities.
The Path Forward
Drax’s recent environmental reports suggest they still have work to do on VOCs. The time to act is now—to demand accountability, justice, and compensation for the victims of Gloster’s suffering.
