Union Carbide




Here is an old print ad for Union Carbide, the company responsible for the Bhopal tragedy. The tag line goes "A Hand in things to come, Union Carbide". Creepy Indeed!

Taken from a list of other creepy old advertisements here. But this one struck me as downright scary. Is this the price we pay for progress?

The US senators want Dow to be punished for the Bhopal tragedy. The Indian gov wants to settle the whole thing outside the jurisdiction and get them back to invest in India. Whose side is the Indian Govt???
