Chapter 47: Other Environmental Catastrophes
Remember the "Exxon Valdez" oil spill? (313) The spill that threatened America's Bald eagle with extinction? (314) Just the tip of the oily, blackened, polluted iceberg.
Even a brief review of all the major environmental crimes of these cartels would be enough good material to fill another twenty pages. There simply isn't enough room in the article to do a decent job. Here are a few highlights...
In 1939, Paul Muller, a Geigy (Farben) researcher, discovers the insecticidal efficacy of DDT; for this work he receives the Nobel Prize in 1948. (315)
DDT has also been suspected in the "severe decline" of the bald eagle. (316)
The other chemical known for decimating the Bald Eagle is PCB - (Farben's) Monsanto had a monopoly on PCB until it was banned in the 1970's. (317) The rest of Americas wildlife is just as threatened.
The "Greenwash 2002 awards" is another good place to begin - Shell, BP, Chevron-Texaco, Monsanto, Novartis and Aventis - all the usual suspects are there. (318)
Within the Domestic Security Enhancement Act 2003, Also Known as Patriot Act II, Section 202 allows corporations to keep secret their activities with toxic biological, chemical or radiological materials. Yet another benefit going to Big Chem from 9-11. (319)
Even if they aren't poisoning us on purpose - even if there is no aluminum in the fuel - they sure like to poison us by accident! Let's get off these unclean fuels right now before we inner-city folk all choke to death! Livin' in the smoggy city can be a lung-slug experience *Kha-hem* know-what-I-mean? I long for the day of non-monopolistic fuels - wind, wave, sun, and especially bio fuels ... fuels that smell nicer ... fuels that don't "melt down" .... fuels that fertilize rather than destroy when they spill. (320)
