Dow's Toxic Lies: Greenwashing Bhopal, Agent Orange, and Dioxin
Saturday, April 17
Judson Memorial Church
Featuring The Yes Men, environmental health and solidarity activists, and conscious kids! From the Bhopal disaster in India to Agent Orange in Vietnam, from poisoning the Tittabawassee River in Michigan with dioxin to killing dolphins in Texas, Dow Chemical's ruthless greed has destroyed lives around the planet. This Sunday, Dow, in conjunction with Al Gore's Live Earth organization, will hold the "Dow Live Earth Run for Water," a shameless attempt to rebrand Dow with a green image. Learn why we can't let the world's largest plastic producer get away with this â and how we intend to stop them!
Aquene Freechild (moderator) works with the International Campaign for Justice in Bhopal.
Whitney Black and Rocco Ferrer work with The Yes Men.
Brian Mooney works with the International Campaign for Justice in Bhopal.
Dawn Reel works with the Vietnam Agent Orange Relief and Responsibility Campaign.
Akash Viswanath Mehta is 12 years old and attends St. Anns school in Brooklyn. When he was 7, he founded Kids for a Better Future (KBF), a kid-run organization dedicated to children's rights all over the world. In December 2008, Akash traveled to Bhopal with his family, volunteered at Sambhavna Clinic, and met many Bhopali kids including the members of Children Against Dow Carbide. In 2009, KBF raised $12,000 for a new playground and the healthcare for 900 Bhopali children at Sambhavna Clinic. Akash and KBF also participated in many 25th anniversary activities, and held a rally outside Dow's Manhattan office on December 3rd, 2009.
