"Amazon Chernobyl"
A waste pit in a pristine forest in Ecuador.
Chevron has admitted that Texaco dumped more than 18 billion gallons of toxic waste into Amazon waterways, abandoned more than 900 waste pits, burned millions of cubic meters of gases with no controls, and spilled more than 17 million gallons of oildue to pipeline ruptures.
The lawsuit alleged that Texaco used a variety of sub-standard production practices in Ecuador that resulted in the dumping of billions of gallons of toxic waste into Amazon waterways. Five indigenous groups have had their traditional lifestyles decimated, and one group (the Tetetes) has disappeared.

A JOE BERLINGER FILM “ CRUDE “ - HAVE YOU SEEN THE PRICE OF OIL LATETLY?
http://www.crudefilm.com/
"The landmark case takes place in the Amazon jungle of Ecuador, pitting 30,000 indigenous and colonial rainforest dwellers against the U.S. oil giant Chevron. The plaintiffs claim that Texaco – which merged with Chevron in 2001 – spent three decades systematically contaminating one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth, poisoning the water, air and land."
I have been fortunate enough to travel to Ecuador and take some stills for the documentary. World premiere will be at Sundance Film Festival 2009.
