a part of what this ng it. to me that no surprise i make the honor of my liberty was not about the money you got me anything. 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 of bhopal. for weeks we tried to reach the communications department at dow to get an interview but without success while the people tree 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

any thing to say you don't want to talk about. if you don't want to talk about the kids there are six i'm sorry it would 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 security are you concerned about what's happening in bhopal you know they're all still contaminating the kids look rational she's 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 so why dolly's not doing anything. a few days later we finally received an e-mail from dow the company in the men's. bhopal was a terrible tragedy that we will never forget. but they relieve themselves of all responsibilities stating that we acquired union carbide more than 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. 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 ounce the biggest financial operation in its history. a merger of one hundred thirty billion dollars with another american chemical giant du pont. a match made in heaven must be. feeling that. there's a lot of the chemistry between. dupont made its fortune with dynamite. nylon. and tough line get a magical material that prevents food from sticking to patterns what i want. to.

be built out of. however behind the success of teflon dupont hides a dark secret sauce just can't believe. in lending more than people. in the dying bank. what they. are worth a window on. this respect. or. 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 my glorious day. it took our pictures it's you that'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 bombs. i mean you can just mention to dupont name and door swung open it was like princes coming through the door you know. bright future with.

where you 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'd never seen anything like it. i cannot figure out what happened. he had half an hour. half in. the eye as a keyhole pupil. i didn't know what to do i was sprague's on. i had no idea what was wrong. bucky survived he is now thirty five years old. but his childhood was spent between

his home and the hospital. i had thirty surgeries a span of you know six or seven years where they took cartilage so for my nose a metal plate here they stretched my forehead out so that they could use. one of those here still have one functioning. we had to put a hockey mask on him and the guards because he was in lab face. he had to wear those for. i would say three months it's. only the only way that he got to tame up was just to eat how he sees as a key to grow and to have you know so many surgeries and it's pretty easy. walking out of public and going into a store or a restaurant. food is you answer all the eyes around you. school when you go

and you're trying to make it there for. all they see is you're different. after her maternity leave suzanne bailey began to suspect her job as the cause of bucky's deformity. a mysterious source. to one molecule in particular. the molecule in tough love that stops food from sticking to it and i went back to work the first day i went to 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 their forty's that had around base. and i thought that sounds just like becky. it was very similar to what they see absolutely very similar almost identical to what he had that's why i knew there was something wrong i thought that's why i connect. the

scientific studies and believe 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. that was the motto. of thing here. 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 all. don't worry it won't hurt the men just the when we feel that it can cause trouble so awesome what hurt me. clinton whimsically was a lab technician he handled c eight for thirty years breed the fumes from all the samples we breathe now we just you know as a time when we would take care of us and. so i just did my jobs for years near him. and we didn't realize who our health was an issue then. surgeon diagnosed me have cancer. so they had to take all my rectum part of my

cold. oh they are already right. there look at that. here's what people have been saying about redacted in the us actually just full on awesome the only show i go out of my way to find you know really what it is that really packs a punch. yampa is the john oliver of r t america is doing the same we are apparently better than two thousand and six and see people you never heard of love

redact the night president of the world bank hey i'm going to write it seriously send us an e-mail. every morning. now contain whimsically 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. buddies people i really love seeing him every day cared about those guys are all dead and i should bet they didn't see retard. and his colleagues were never warned about the risks of ca. however we park. here in a confidential document from dupont. it's dated one thousand nine hundred eighty two thirty four years ago. and it mr karr 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 well. we could have prevented a lot of laws. unfavored 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 do. 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. the so i can get for mother's all the time saying like ass own banging in front of over and you think about the next thing you know you throw it away and that's basically what this was it just caught my attention and i start. then the flag started first of all what was say air which is used by the or what do you have to do. joe cocker's sought clarification on the matter. called dupont to try to find out so they put me in touch with

a guy i don't know mr kennedy they. like to know more about the cia if you see this film is not in the 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 the truth i also saw 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 law bill these of they got they were trying to slide under the radar. for so long they have done nothing but lie for years the people about what this stuff is all about they're all 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 us 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 all. time and out of quietness for about seventeen years. and i still have more a problem and i have our cholesterol. there's a ross macheda we're seeing. today can doesn't have a colon anymore he too is living with an astronomy bag of a sudden you don't function normally but you and. that's when.

there's not any. any hope and that's called. controllers. and this controls don't want to things in my wife. anyway i did through that. 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 as opposed to their argument it's not economically attractive

. that was in what year paid for. france for we were married has a long. long all. that's crazy that's all they said bad you know that the head of and it's. just disregarded kept going and every dollar it was company greenwood 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 still trust and you're still confident that you will get to trial at some point all this running out of the department of debate out of the fifty or more. there won't 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 you're injured. so i think they should straighten up. and i can write with their 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 and no turner we are doing a documentary these debates 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 seen you can see me making signs respect. that you know that there is like an incredible amount of documents showing that you have known the drupal for the boss thirty years. and knew that you were poisoning your employees at the washington word splints and season well you know the recognizing the fact that you have degree of clothes and so i was in the first sense. ok. first question. yeah. my question is ok i'll be.

fine later today we are in two thousand and sixteen they'll steals three thousand five hundred person we serve a disease that's a way to just have the right to get the trial i mean how long are you going to deny your response. abilities are you waiting that day old i. doubt it will provide for your nothing else. no help like if people provide us with the. night. we did receive a press release from du pont. but without a single word for 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. we all willingly accepted the risk of being shot wounded taken prisoner but none of

us signed up to be friggin poisoned by our own people saying stuff that was nuclear biological and chemical products said do not truck tires all types of styrofoam polystyrene these batteries trucks there was a complete denial i think at all levels of government that there was any connection between berm pits and what these brave soldiers were suffering from to compensate every soldier marine airman and sailor that was on the ground that are complaining about illnesses from their exposure from the burn pits would bring literally send a v.a. broke and they don't want to pay it so the way to the decades a lot of those soldiers will die in time and they won't have to be. called relevant because the middle finger to their b.s. model is so. delayed and narrow began.
