This morning, Greenpeace activists placed a statue in front of the Europe headquarters of Dow Chemical on the occasion of the 19th anniversary of the Bhopal disaster. The copy of the famous "Bhopal Memorial" by Ruth Waterman recalls the Bhopal disaster and the devastating and still unresolved consequences.
In an open letter - published in today's edition of the NZZ - Champadevi Shukla, widow and victim of the catastrophe, is asking Dow Europe director Luciano Respini and the rest of Dow Management, to finally clean up the contaminated site in Bhopal.
Within the framework of the International Action Days against Corporate Crimes people are protesting worldwide - including in India and the U.S. - with actions against Dow Chemical and other "Corporate Criminals".
