Episode Details

Pullman Innovations is under fire after a lawsuit from Chicago and the Illinois Attorney General over unbearable odors from its vegetable oil plant—so foul they’ve forced schools to cancel recess and made neighbors shut windows. EPA and city inspectors have long flagged the facility for illegal pollution, unpermitted boilers, and descriptions like “rotting fish” and “decay of flesh.” Despite years of complaints and a new ownership in 2016, problems persist, even sparking a class-action suit since 2018. Officials demand compliance with environmental laws, vowing to use all tools to protect residents from this toxic stench—and signal a broader crackdown on polluters across the city.
