Chevron/Texaco: you'll never want to buy their petrol again

I have previously blogged on Chevron and the amazing 20 year legal case regarding Ecuador (see here) - amongst the horrifying revelations they dug nearly 1,000 unlined pits into which they would pour for permanent storage (by 1990) over 18 billion gallons of inadequately treated, carcinogenic, toxic waste, such as benzene.....an estimated 30,000 victims.....

For those wanting a useful summary go to Car Talk blog here. It is worth a read - I am sure you will never buy their petrol again!
