Chevron Scum
Posted by arianerakete on 19. April. 2008
I was at the Goldman Environmental Awards (the Oscars of environmental defenders) on Monday night, a slightly less awe-inspiring lineup than in previous years, it seemed to me, EXCEPT FOR Luis Yanza and Pablo Fajardo, the legal team fighting behemoth Chevron for its poisoning of Ecuadorian Amazon. Their integrity and courage is undeniable.
Conniving Chevron and its puffy-faced spokesman saying Yanza and Fajardo are con-men out for personal gain is laughable. Would be laughable, except that petroleum-poisoned children and other creatures and water and plants of Ecuador are dying every day.
