Ecuador's politicians allowing Chevron to enter their country does not excuse the atrocities that have been committed there.

Just to clarify, this movie is available for free and is distributed by the filmmakers at their own cost. Please do not buy gas from Chevron and remember that every dollar you spend is a statement.

It is because of the Ecuadorian oil company, not Chevron or Texaco, that the land is polluted. Wise up

[danman801]

@thawhiteazn don't be so ignorant get some history first, Texaco exploited the amazon area before the consortium with the state company was made, plus Texaco was part of the consortium with the Ecuadorian state but was the only operator, that is why the are to be held accountable

[thawhiteazn]

@danman801

I think you should learn history for yourself. The blame is put on Texaco, but it was absolutely the fault of the Ecuadorian oil company. Texaco stopped operating in Ecuador in 1992, and AGRA Earth & Environmental Ltd. and Fugro-McClelland both concluded that Texaco had acted responsibly as well as the Ecuadorian gov't itself. Because of a new gov't in Ecuador and mislead peasants, you now have what is currently going on in that country. So don't call me ignorant.

@thawhiteazn i suggest you to watch:Judge Jorge Nunez misconduct video series and you will see who Chevron hired to fix the problem in the way that is less costly for them, which support my point that all the reports and agreements you mentioned are far from being a quality solution and just the product of a company maximizing its profit in a corrupt government

@danman801

The $40 million remediation program began in 1995 and was completed in late summer 1998. During the process, all remediation activities were inspected and certified by the Ecuadorian government on a site by site basis.

@danman801

On September 30, 1998, Ecuador's Minister of Energy and Mines, The President of Petroecuador and the General Manager of Petroproduccion signed the "Final Release of Claims and Delivery of Equipment." This 1998 agreement finalized the Government of Ecuador's approval and certification of Texaco Petroleum's environmental remediation work and stated that Texaco Petroleum fully complied with all obligations established in the remediation agreement signed in 1995.

@thawhiteazn all sounds very nice, taken from wikipedia?? why do you think Chevron asked the U.S. court to move this case to Ecuador?? Let me help you because there was easier to bribe authorities as in the the case of the 40M remediation that you mention where some pits were never touched and most were done with low standards. Yes the Ecuador government signed the agreement but the work was not properly done. The actual government is the first to visit the zone

[thawhiteazn]

@danman801 And the other two independent environmental organizations?

[thawhiteazn]

@danman801 And I suppose the other two organizations were paid off as well then?

There is plenty of fraud that has been committed by the Judges and other Ecuadorian officials involved against Chevron, why don't you just look at the Times?

[danman801]

@thawhiteazn as the sole operator Texaco is responsible for what the had left, did you know that Chevron tried to bribe the last judge in this case in order to have him rule on their favor?? The state oil company has a part here, yes but Chevron Texaco has to pay for what they did which is maximize their profit with poor practices and with a remediation that has not fixed the damaged made to the amazon forest. The report mention that all the pits where verified and that is simply on paper

[thawhiteazn]

@danman801

It was not the sole operator, and was only a minor holder compared with Petroecuador. Just because people from your country want Chevron's money, doesn't make it their fault. And I've seen the Daryl Hannah pics and others in which they were taken to horribly polluted areas, and told it was Chevron's when it was really Petroecuador's land.

[danman801]

@thawhiteazn Sorry but you are very wrong on that one it was the sole operator in that time Petroecuador didn't even exist the state company part of the consortium had another name, yes it was a minor holder but operation wise the only operator.

visit truecostofchevron . com and see that this in not the only case where we find bad practice from Chevron, just tell us why do you think Chevron asked to move this to Ecuador in the first place?

[danman801]

@thawhiteazn Seach for US congressman Jim McGovern on Chevron and you will see what is the real perspective of a US official that really went to see the damage in my country

[thawhiteazn]

@danman801

Frankly I don't give two shits about McGovern

[geraboldy]

How the fuck am i supposed to share this "activist" video when the WANKERS that made it wont release the copyright. Well let me tell you motherfuckers that this whole fucking show is going down and if you fucks dont shapen the fuck up then u will die alone in the amazon!

[redacademy2]

Why do you feel the need to express yourself with such vulgar language? I feel sorry for you. I think you need to get outside more often.
