december third one thousand nine hundred eighty four the night we can never forget . when the leakage of and i see gas from this union carbide factory made people sleep forever but. those who are no more today the people they use. those mothers and sisters who were sleeping that night in their homes. the gas leakage from union carbide made them sleep forever. anderson go to hell union carbide go to hell.

for so many years who's been drinking poisonous water even today the water is still poisonous and all of our children are sick. the entire community split up with

a problem that is why we will keep fighting until your agreement to all demands the fine to continue. inoculated for a gas leak from a union carbide corporation factory in bhopal killed up to twenty five thousand people it was one of the world's worst industrial accidents more than thirty thousand people are believed to have died from the effects of toxic chemicals released into the air from this factory the union carbide plant in the central indian city of book. on up on the contaminated water is making our lives how they're going to get even that. all those of tons of stuff that we just live betty is three forty six

tons of waste in that warehouse additives of thousands of tons of waste on the surface of the back to provide. the. it was the plant that was responsible for causing the world's worst industrial disaster and now it had been abandoned in a condition where it had become a source of pollution or the most recent study that was done shows that this water pollution and spreading more than three and a half thousand died in the immediate aftermath of the disaster after inhaling the fuse thousands more would have parishes trucks and seeps into the ground around the plant poisoning water supplies. and drugs but it has been twenty seven years and there is still no proper or secure detox for cation or treatment of the soil and the neutralization of the chemical toxic waste is still not done. yet the government gas relief minister bubble is claiming there are no more sick

people and that the factory is clean and that one hundred percent of the people are drinking one hundred percent pure water these are complete lies groups working with affected children see the children. ten times more likely to be born with birth defects in children in the rest of the country. you know. there are kids being born like this there are many kids like this in my own area there are many kids like this. by refusing to be poisoned in their water and soil. pollution is committing crimes crimes on a large number of people. respiratory problems heart problems i problems. the

ratio of patients are increasing by the day. people suffering the. there are people dying and the next generation is getting infected with horrific can dangle malformations they're born with so the fact that the suffering hasn't ended and that injustice continues and be individuals and agencies responsible for these. mass disasters remain unpunished.

this cruise line would be your new carbides. it's not much. earth a layer of paper a layer of oil and it would still be hot. if you don't think we. are burning.

in god made gone pollution is this american transnational that was involved in the war was. in the midst of what's called the green revolution by decided the best to save manufacturing you need to. get started in the war seventies and the formulation just mixing different pesticides. back in degraded reduction of methane i'd say meat. and they knew right in seventy two badly methods without a plan they were building in what would be untested technology in their own words and that its safety was not known.

fifty thousand injured have been counted but up to two hundred thousand may be affected in the long term cerebral palsy has begun to wish for the survivors the doctors hardly know how to relieve the suffering they're not sure exactly what it was in the lethal cocktail of gases so it's difficult to prescribe effective at work for a funeral pyres is becoming scarce so fifty bodies are being burnt at a time in mass cremations. if there are many chemicals found in the water around here which were once used in the union carbide factory. every time it rains the toxic waste which is lying on the surface of the factory goes deep inside the earth and pollutes the soil.

because here because surface which is contaminated and the chemicals which are in the earth needs to be removed and talks of fights or. otherwise the pollution will continue and people will keep using polluted water and that is very dangerous and mark. thank. you. i'm not alone my name is salam bubble but people call me brother salome and.

i have a small business where you lot we are daily wage earners. but i have no savings here walkway whatever does get saved is spent on medicine. her condition used to be much better. she used to go to the market go for walks earn play around with. she used to laugh and have fun there were no

problems. of some time later on we noticed but she couldn't sit up on her own or turn over of your kind about me what here. slowly she started looking to press. when we would talk to her she would not reply . so we brought her to the doctor the doctor said she's been like this since birth and there might be some treatment for her.

today we're at a point where we wanted to do a lot but we can't do much. for the people that has an ending because people continue to be there more than hundred thousand people still chronically ill and there's additionally thirty thousand

people who have been forced to drink contaminated water for the last fifteen sixteen years when you see that the next generation is affected then you do not know when it stop. in my eyes this hospital is of no use all the doctors here are useless too it's like putting a child's life in danger it's a waste of time and money. here at the hospital money talks. you give money and to be looked after. we are poor people and we don't have money and that's why no one looks after us even if your child is dying.

we have spent five thousand rupees since we have come here i'm not sad about that i will earn it again but as for my daughter there is no improvement and we don't know what to do. whatever is within my power i will do it. the hospitals don't even give our met some to those who need it or if someone doesn't have gas relief papers. how does he apply for medication. if a prescription is made for five rupees how is a poor laborer going to spare five rupees. at the end of the day all of the big ministers of the state are pumping money in their pockets i want to face them even if they put me behind bars and i'm ready to go to jail for these poor people because this hunger is this sickness look at those gutter tents couldn't fall sick

by drinking that water. right now people are not getting proper treatment they have built beaked our hospitals but they give priority to people who have money that. poor people get no preference. bhopal hospital was made for gas victims but treatment is not given in time and people die painfully waiting for treatment. sometimes i feel like there is nothing in our control. there are so many memories and so much pain that comes since the gas tragedy that surviving has become a living hell. before

we had no hope of cyber would even survive we just left everything to god's own. came to this hospital. slowly her condition has improved and we realize these injections are very powerful . the doctor told us the same thing about the injections and once this course is over another will begin and those are supposed to be even better than. the doctor said she's almost conscious now. when we came here we were very sad and when we leave i just want us to be very happy here.

but isn't that rather shaming for so many years after the terrible tragedy poisonous chemicals were still there. and said to me no there's no truth in it there was chemical waste and it was decided that waste could be disposed of put into the instructions of the supreme court so there was nothing because the disk of human life that you will immediately will later on in the group and i'll be at yesterday's out of study on the toxic legacy of union got by tactic and will cause embedded lot of thought in the government that and we have some people that decide

things not busting outside the factory we collected eleven groundwater sample we found mostly in one thousand displaced people find that drinking water and spending all this found was that they got elected from the site when heavily contaminated they obviously pesticides build anything beneath us inside and wanted to let me go through. the belief that obama is not a one time disaster it is a continuing disaster simply because that is if i didn't ground was a combination and combination of a lot of it the whole budget because of your. life there is a contradiction in what the government is saying i mean you have to ask the government and i think it's a very good question that the government the indian government is submitting a request for relief. to us or saying we support this we want the union carbide to clean up this plant and this. pollution at the same time the government is making statements that there is no pollution problem every time an indian politicians

makes a statement like this this is union carbide submitted to the american court and says look even their own government says there is no problem this is a class action the case has been pending since ninety nine. the plaintiffs are people from the affected community. people who are suffering from health effects. from the eighty's onward. us costs in every way possible and. that was already by design straight away it meant reduction of safety. the safety equipment which was provided here such as the refrigeration system for the storage tank where am i see how to be kept at a low temperature for safety reasons it was all shut down in may one thousand nine hundred four. they shut down due to.

something like seventy dollars a day which meant that the. bank was unsafe. behind be a storage tank number six hundred ten this was the storage tank that leaked the process vent line of this tank and could not hold the pressure. for this reason water travelled into the tank while the water entering into the tank may have been the immediate trigger of the disaster the fact that all the safety systems were turned off well certainly contributing to the disaster the fact that he was not being stored as it was originally required to be stored at zero degrees celsius that fact contributed so that you really had a series of causes coming together after the accident i found out that the machinery provided by union carbide for the plant was unproven technology the used equipment verifying it or making sure it was safe. because i was working with union

carbide india ltd. that's what i would gret. but it was not in control of the workers and. their vote because. everything was in control of higher management . there were criminal charges for an offense known under indian law as culpable homicide which would be the equivalent of manslaughter and union carbide had been served but had refused to appear to face those criminal charges. with me to day one and. read you know just returned on a trip familiar so i want to take this opportunity to express my deep sympathy for all of the. terrible tragedy. and when i first heard of the reports. they were sketchy at first. by the time tuesday morning. the magnitude of the

tragedy. quite apparent friday morning. and we arrived. there was a subdued crowd waiting at the airport to be union carbide chairman warren anderson but the day's events which had taken extraordinary turn with dramatic developments almost hourly. never got to meet the victims of bo powell or indeed his own engineers he was whisked away in a police caught to the company's guesthouse in the hills about the town. but. i think he came because it was his responsibility to be. released i would do if i was him i would be responsible mr anderson had taken refuge behind the gates and was definitely not receiving visits then the local police superintendent out

the startling news to mr anderson and to local union carbide executives on down the rest on. exactly who the rest of. us. there was. the world. and everybody knew that it was coming. and. there were. several. general. which. had been arrested on charges of criminal and constructive. offenses carrying a possible two year jail sentence and theoretically no chance of bail even the company's lawyer could see them as they were confined. saw the

problem. as government. trying to. solve a problem. at the magic pradesh state headquarters a senior official confirmed the government would be seeking compensation for damages and they launched a bitter attack on union carbide this government going after a minute. of the tragedy. and knows its. innocent citizens whose lives have been. dramatically affected. by a cruel. on the part of the management of the union. of course .

the indian government has request for extradition of. the us government has denied the request. dr. the proposal for the method that. was warren anderson was informed about. safety and planned all this was his but it's no knowledge. wealthy british. markets. find out what's really happening to the global economy for
