It is very interesting to see how GE has benefitted from the US's war on terror. 90 percent of GE's nuclear power plants could discharge radiation into the atmosphere. It is responsible for polluting 78 Superfund sites, and is pushing the government to overturn Superfund legislation. Fraud and poor safety for workers are also issues. Why don't we see this on the ecomagination commercials?

Second largest chemical manufacturer in the world, and largest producer of plastics. Responsible for 20,000 deaths in the Bhopal disaster in India, was the sole supplier of napalm to the US in the Vietnam War, and manufactured Agent Orange. The Human Element indeed.

COCHABAMBA, Bolivia - The people of this high Andean city were ecstatic when they won the "water war." After days of protests and martial law, Bechtel - the American multinational that had increased rates when it began running the waterworks - was forced out... its executives fled... protest leaders pledged to improve service... celebrated the ouster as a major victory.... Today, five years later, water is again as cheap as ever, and a group of community leaders runs the water utility, Semapa. But half of Cochabamba's 600,000 people remain without water, and those who do have service have it only intermittently - for some, as little as two hours a day, for the fortunate, no more than 14.
