Lets get this straight: Hightech 1. world comp. texaco goes to third world country makes huge profits exploit. oil res. without baseline epa oversight (because such epa does not exist in equador - which must have been very attractve at the planning stage-) pollutes the country massively leaves and then blames local com. that was suppose to learn from them how to exploit said oil res.....?

How come we have hardly heard anything about this in us media?

These HDP, Americans believe that the damage are not

importance. They took our black gold, ended the flora, fauna

and almost with our Indians in the Amazon. Should send equipment and

specialized staff to clean all traces of oil quite

existing in the affected areas, then pay the maximum compensation for

with that money properly reforest the entire area affected. Q even

how much money you give, the dead rise not.

Estos HDP, norteamericanos creen que los daños ocasionados no son de importancia. Se llevaron nuestro oro negro, acabaron con la flora, la fauna y casi con nuestros Indígenas de la Amazonia. Deberían mandar equipos y personal especializado para limpiar absolutamente todo rastro de petroleo existente en las áreas afectadas, luego pagar la máxima indemnización para con ese dinero reforestar adecuadamente toda la superficie afectada. Aun q por más dinero que den, los fallecidos no resucitarán.

@gravenewworld82 No, Chevron is known for impeding the advancement of technologies that might threaten our continued dependence upon them.

Those people are dying so Chevron can continue holding us all in chains... They dont give a dam about any of us or our lifestyle.

AS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN I AM DEEPLY OFFENDED BY THE DESTRUCTIVE ACTIONS OF AMERICAN OIL COMPANIES IN THE WORLD PATRIMONY OF THE AMAZON.  I PROTEST !!!

We have to chance our ways. This is very selfish and inhuman. Those forest are our lungs, they are our pharmacy, they are everything. It's time for a global awakening of la Tierra
