Gas stations causing cancer. That’s a new one on me.

I have to drive 15 mi. to the nearest Costco. Probably a good thing.

There is one on the drawing boards much closer but the neighbors are fighting it.
We’ll see which side comes up with the biggest bribe.

Mine is about 3 miles away, always has the cheapest gas in the area, and is immediately adjacent (shares a parking lot) to a Home Depot. I like it.

"Gas stations causing cancer. That’s a new one on me."

All gasoline contains benzene (and other polynuclear aromatics), some of which are known human carcinogens.

That said, AFAIK, there is zero evidence to prove a cause-effect link. This is all based on typical eco-radical propaganda.
