"Asking Dow to sponsor Live Earth is like
building
a temple or a cathedral
to god and asking the
devil to consecrate
it."
Dow's global legacy
of poison and pain

An appeal from the
survivors of Bhopal
Dow's use of PR to
deny, delay and deceive
A "solar evaporation pond", abandoned full of thousands
of tons of toxic sludge by Dow's subsidiary Union Carbide. Animals
die, people living nearby get cancers and babies are born with terrifying
deformities. Under "polluter pays" legislation, Union Carbide and Dow
are responsible for cleaning the soil and the drinking water
of the communities they have poisoned for so many years. But Dow, which
has pledged to provide clean safe water for every human being on earth,
has consistently refused to clean up its mess in Bhopal. Maybe
Bhopalis are not human. Or maybe Dow bosses are not human. You decide.
