but it was not that i am so doubtful that you once again what was said of him goes over to what the correct they can cite is that it says about did i want to kill him it was good but i really don't know how does an example goes out of a job of us got the us and they and most of them down when that big second choice the cubicle thing for any of us or about anybody is that is a bit long but depend on what they say the must visit look out that evening i meant as i am a out in my mind exert myself something that i it was good but was immediately made us all still though they don't feel that funny number a remember that i don't is that is the pinnacle of this ng it. to me that i am surprised i made the honor of my liberty and was not about the money you got me and . in two thousand and fifteen gave four point five billion dollars to a chair holders but not a single cent has been given to the decontamination. for weeks we tried to reach the communications department at dow to get an

interview without success well that. was going to answer those questions it's pretty important i'm not aware of who that is read off the top of my head we have fifty thousand employees so i have to agree. never called us back so we decided to go to the company's general assembly in midland in the us to ask our questions. cameras are not allowed inside so we stayed in the parking lot sorry. shoulder. yeah i get been talking about here with a new resolution because at least you. know that i was there but what are you search for i may ask you to please leave. your. stamp here you understand you're arrested on this and. we quickly realized that we were not welcome. yes. ok so i can stay there.

ok so we carefully followed their rules for forty five long minutes. until the communications department had. decided to finally set foot outside. a low sorry to disturb you i mean french journalist. relations and we told no sorry. i don't have any thing to say you don't want to talk about. you don't want to talk about the kids that are sick i'm sorry it wouldn't be appropriate for me to say anything. so we thought of another solution. we would bring our questions directly to the personal residence of the c.e.o. of dow mr liveris along with this letter we displayed an american style election sign to make sure that he would miss it.

and i'm not on the property here. you know are. you working for mr neither is over the company don't you are you working for. are you concerned about syria are you concerned about what's happening in bhopal you know there are. kids look russia not just thirteen years old it's terrible so why does not doing anything. i don't know sir. but doesn't touch you you don't mind that's everybody's there so whether he's not doing anything. a few days later we finally received an email from dow the company in the manse bhopal it was a terrible tragedy that we will never forget. but they relieve themselves of all responsibilities stating that we acquired union carbide more. then sixteen years

after the catastrophe of one thousand nine hundred four down continues to address global issues through human solutions. issues like clean water as important as life itself. i was working to make water safe and readily available to people all over the globe you know. nothing is more fundamental. nothing. in dollars wake countless victims and human tragedies pile up without any damage to the company's profits. in december two thousand and fifteen dowen else the biggest financial operation in its history. a merger of one hundred thirty billion dollars with another american chemical giant dupont. a match made in

heaven. dealing that. there's a lot of good chemistry between. dupont made its fortune with dynamite. nylon. and tough line get a magical material that prevents food from sticking to what they want. to. be built. however behind the success of teflon dupont hides a dark secret i just can't believe. the line more than people. dying because of what they. think. cares a girl went to a window on. this respect.

at the heart of this drama is one city parkersburg. lost in the eastern u.s. . this city was built around the dupont factory. suzanne bailey came here in one thousand seventy eight to work on the tough line production lines. i went to work in may the eighth one nine hundred seventy eight that was by glorious day. it took our pictures it's u. s. me. without gray hair. in the middle yeah you know i was so happy i was that was the only job i mean everybody want to go there because of the money

and the benefits and everything like that it was secure the chemical industry of the growing growing by leaps and bomb. i mean you can just mention to dupont name and door swung open it was like princes coming through the door you know. first one buyer and one. bright future with. where you are at the so i was thrilled i was absolutely thrilled that it. a few months after starting her job at dupont suzanne bailey became pregnant in january of one nine hundred eighty one she gives birth to the little bucky. when he was born it was very traumatic they didn't know what to do with it they've never seen anything like it. i cannot figure out what happened.

he had. the eye as a keyhole people. i didn't know what to do i was sprague's. i had no idea. bucky survived he is now thirty five years old. but his childhood was spent between his home and the hospital. had thirty surgeries a span of you know six or seven years where they took cartilage so for one of those metal plate here. they stretched my forehead out so that they could use the. nose still have one. we had to put. guards because he wasn't face. he had to wear those for.

i would say three months one months. only the only way that he got to tame up was just to eat how he sees as a key to good and to have you know so many surgeries and it's pretty intense from walking out of public and going through a store or a restaurant. food as you answer all the eyes around you. school when you go in and you're trying to make here for. all this she is here to for. after her maternity leave suzanne bailey began to suspect her job is the cause of bucky's deformity. a mysterious source of to one molecule in particular. eight the molecule in tough that stops food from sticking to pans and i went back to work the first day i went to the locker and i found the paper laying there i

picked it up i began reading about it. it was talking about how the rats were fed the ca and what deformities that had around her face. and i thought that sounds just fine back in. it was very similar to what they said absolutely very similar almost identical to what he had that's why i knew that there was something wrong i thought that's why i connect. the scientific studies suzanne bailey found had been conducted by a subcontractor of dupont it studied baby rats whose mothers were exposed to see eight they developed abnormal eye lenses. i immediately walked at that door went down to medical and i said is this what's wrong with my baby oh no no i think on this point. it was a motto. that. a thing year or two.

but in the meantime dupont was secretly investigating the pregnant women working in their factory two out of seven children born to the factory workers had facial deformities like bucky shortly after dupont decided to transfer suzanne bailey and her colleagues to other departments. at the time canton whimsically also worked in the manufacturing department of tough line. he remembers the discussion he had with his manager he said can we sell the women home out. he said oh don't worry him or her the men just the when we feel that. it can cause trouble so i saw him or heard me say. clinton whimsically was a lab technician he handled c. eight for thirty years breathed the fumes from all the samples we breathed we just

you know and the time when we saw when you would take care of us and. so i just did mage all those for years near enough. and we didn't realize who our health was an issue then. surgeon diagnosed me have a new cancer. it had taken all my rectum part of my cold.

is just another post piece and tell. you. about the. that might. put itself in what they say. but the investigate police officers behave here as well. i'll take drugs in the west end up in presence here. calling people

as you please. europe as the capacity to integrates. the refugees at the same time we cannot accept everybody that comes to all come from countries it's true i mean all countries have the control of their borders books all come through so europe also as the rights to control its borders.

for everybody. now continue emsley has to live with an astronomy bag attached to his stomach. he changes it day and night. at the factory she worked in a team with three other technicians. a buddies. i really love seen him every day cared about those guys are all dead and i should bet they didn't see retard. now no. way i'm sleepy and his colleagues were never warned about the risks of c eight. however we procured a confidential document from dupont. it's dated one thousand nine hundred eighty

two thirty four years ago. and it mr carr the medical director at the time expresses concern about the consequences of c h retained in the blood of employees. he specifically recommends that practical steps be taken to reduce this exposure. all employees not just kept on area more cursed are exposed so rather than to do anything they just read it out. i never seen a letter like. a met and can say what. we could've prevented a lot of laws. in favor told us there's a problem. i had to cover. my day law. why didn't they have us protected. too costly.

we tracked down bruce carr dupont's former medical director. he is now enjoying a peaceful retirement by the ocean far from parkersburg. i have a document of nine hundred eighty two showing that you are aware that see it was toxic for workers why have you not told them the truth at the time they were all told the truth that they were told everything when you actually know i have interviewed some employees and they were not aware of anything we told her lawyers everything we did we knew that you know back at night you know. you're trying to do reconstruction history and you can't do that why have you not print takin your own please. dog bullshit. du pont would not only put their employees in danger once again tens of thousands of people would be affected. they live up to seventy kilometers away from the factory

. one man would discover this a bit by accident. joe kiger. on october thirty first two thousand he received a letter from the municipality concerning the quality of the tap water it mentions c eight and the setting in my court yard to live with water in the flowers and we got our water bill and the mail on with that bill came a letter. this i think it form letters all the time saying like ass own banging in front of over and you think about next thing you know you throw it away and that's basically what this was it just caught my. and i start it and then the flag started first of all what was say air which is used by the or what do have to do. joe cocker's

sought clarification on the matter. and called dupont to try to find out so they put me in touch with a guy i don't know mr canaday you know like to know more about the cia this you see this film is not to worry about about it was this. and it wasn't anything to worry about and he was flat out lying on the me and i can tell them. to get to the bottom of it he takes dupont to court. after a long legal battle the judge forces the company to declassify their internal studies on seeing. joe cocker discovers the truth behind the factory of parkersburg . project gates they've been dumping c eight waste into the river. to make things worse dupont has known since one thousand nine hundred four that the molecule spread into the regions tap water. the company found astronomical levels

in public taps. up to fifty times the limit of toxicity according to the u.s. environmental protection agency. that was nineteen eighty-four and we didn't come out till two thousand so sixteen years yeah before we even hit them up about it and they as you say right here they chose not to do anything about it and they knew what was common with the liabilities if they got they were trying to slide under the radar people trust to do it for so long they have done nothing but lie for years to pay for about what this stuff is all about they're sick people out here because of what they've done. there's people dying because of what they've done. during all these years more than seventy thousand people have been drinking contaminated water. in two thousand and eleven both scientific research

and the u.s. justice system established that c. eight could cause six diseases thyroid disorder high cholesterol all sort of collide just high blood pressure kidney cancer or testicular cancer. today three thousand five hundred people in the parkersburg region are ill. they've all filed complaints against dupont. this is the case for earl and gwen bought. it out of quietness for about seventeen years. to document up a. restaurant of current problems and hair are cholesterol. and those are also shared with siri. today can doesn't have a colon anymore he too is living with an astronomy bag of

a sudden you know function normally mature and. that's what i'll live with. and there's not any and only hope and that's called change. controllers where i go and what i had to eat. and just control didn't want to things in my life. in a way i did throughout. a document reveals that all of these victims could have been spared. on may twenty second one thousand nine hundred eighty four a meeting took place at the dupont headquarters the directors are worried about the consequences for the inhabitants they plan to eliminate all c eight emissions. i wanted to show you these sentences here. but finally

no measures are taken to their argument it's not economically attractive. that is what you're ready for. that's for we were married as a long. long all. that's crazy that's all that bad you know that the head of and it's. just disregarded kept on and every door it was company green that caused this whole situation they knew what they were doing to us and they continued to do it for money that's the only reason they continued to do it. dupont refuses to collectively compensate the three thousand five hundred sick people they prefer to study the cases one by one as a result since two thousand and twelve only one victim has been able to get a trial. dupont was sentenced to pay her one point six million dollars the three

thousand four hundred ninety nine remaining victims like robots can are still waiting at the current pace of the trials the last one would take place in one hundred years. do you trust and then that you will get to some point. there will be a trial so. transfers are made living long enough to receive. orders to know you're going. to be tracked on which may very well your interest. and i think they should stand up. and i can write with a marriage. dupont refused all of our requests for an interview so we drove to their headquarters in

delaware on the east coast to convince them to answer our questions. at the other end of the line we reached the head of media relations daniel turner we. debase ways you know we meet and to make a proper interview you know at some point but first let's me it's you know i'm just here i think you can see me here i'm making signs that. you know that there is like an incredible amount of documents showing that you have known the. thirty years. and knew that you were poisoning your employees at the washington word splints. season well you know that they do have a degree poison so i was in the first sense. ok.

yeah. my question is ok. today we are in two thousand and sixteen steals three thousand five hundred. but first we serve a disease that's a waiting to just have the right to get to trial i mean how long are you going to deny your responsibility are you waiting that day old i. doubt it will provide for your nothing else. no out like if people provide us with the same thing. we did receive a press release from du pont. but without a single word from the victims. they claim to have studied see it carefully for

decades and affirm to have always acted responsibly. in two thousand and fifteen dupont finally stopped using c eight the company was also ordered by the courts to clean up the region. but how many generations are still to experience the after effects of this contamination. in the chemical world history inexorably tends to repeat itself. it takes decades to reveal the truth and just as many years for the multinationals to be prosecuted . in their laboratories new toxic molecules are constantly being developed. but in ten twenty thirty or forty years who knows how many new victims will be poisoned.
