Don't Work for Deadly Dow!

To: Students & Professionals

We, the undersigned, pledge not to work for Dow Chemical Company or any of its subsidiaries until the company addresses its responsibilities in Bhopal, particularly:

1. Obey the Law. Dow must ensure that its fully-owned subsidiary ceases to abscond and, 17 years after it was originally summoned, face longstanding criminal charges of “culpable homicide” (manslaughter) before the Chief Judicial Magistrate’s court in Bhopal.

2. Clean Up the Poison. Dow must clean up toxic wastes and contaminated groundwater that Union Carbide left behind in Bhopal, thereby ending the cycle of contamination and killing that has been allowed to continue for the past 22+ years. Dow must also provide fair compensation for those who have been injured or made ill by this contamination.

Those who sign the pledge will receive three emails: 4 months before, on and after their graduation date, reminding them of their pledge not to work for Dirty Dow. You will not receive any additional email from us unless you indicate you would like to find out more about Students for Bhopal. Note: all pledges will be shared with Dow.
