Amazon Watch's Mitch Anderson shows us how toxic waste pits built by Texaco (now Chevron) around the company's oil drilling sites in Ecuador are designed to pollute, and continue to spread oil contamination in the Amazon rainforest environment. A large waste pit at 'Agua Rico 4' oil well in northeastern Ecuador has an overflow pipe which allows toxins to flow out of the pit when it rains (which it frequently does) and into nearby streams and rivers depended upon by local residents for drinking and bathing.
The next time you show crude, get a small amount of it and safely set it on fire, to prove that it is not just mud. That's what Gasland did, and it sure proved that the water was contaminated, and it did it very plainly. No natural liquid substance found in water would burn, so please show that it does.
