The people of Aruba are being harmed by the severe pollution caused by the Valero Refinery in San Nicolas. San Nicolas along with its surrounding cities have and continue to be polluted in the most unimaginable and inhumane form. As a result, Aruba’s children are being harmed, the rate of cancer has drastically increased, the rate of other sicknesses that are a direct result of the severe air pollution that is continuously spewed into the towns of Pos Chiquito, Savaneta and San Nicolas, Aruba has drastically increased.

The detrimental and long term health effects caused by the air pollution from this Refinery that is placed right next to local businesses, homes, schools, daycares, etc. is horrendous and can even be lethal to the people in the surrounding areas.

Therefore, we call for a Class Action Lawsuit against the Valero Energy Corporation to pay monetary compensation to the men, women and children of Aruba who have been severely harmed by this Refinery.
