Seems to me I've heard that the Missouri plant was or is going to be shut down due to a massive stink that was covering a large area around the plant. Also, I'm very sceptical of any enterprise that uses "Changing World" in its name.

Wow, you're right. It was just recently closed because people got sick the stench after more than a year. Still, it was producing 300 barrels of crude oil every day.

According to the article below, everyone is hoping it works out, but the nasty smell has got to go.

Actually the article says the shutdown has been ordered, but the company has the right to appeal before complying, so it's still working as of right now.
