Public Resistance
Since January of 2022, SOBE Concerned Citizens have educated the public and local government officials on the dangers of SOBE. This has culminated in the passage of a Moratorium on gasification and pyrolysis in Youngstown. Mayor Jamael T. Brown signed Ordinance 23-470 into law on December 26, 2023, and renewed the Moratorium Ordinance on November 21, 2024, with unanimous support of the Youngstown City Council:
"All men are, by nature, free and independent, and have certain inalienable rights, among which are those of enjoying and defending life and liberty, acquiring, possessing, and protecting property, and seeking and obtaining happiness and safety."

Ohio State Constitution, Article I, §1, Bill of Rights - Inalienable Rights (1851)
