SEC denies Chevron's latest attempt to silence its $27 billion liability
Triple Pundit: People, Planet, Profit —
From 1964 to 1990, Texaco (which later merged with Chevron in 2001), drilled for that precious black gold in the Ecuadorian Amazon. During that time, 18 billion gallons of toxic wastewater was dumped, and about 16 million gallons of crude was spilled. Hundreds of open pits, filled with toxic waste were also abandon in the forest. As a result of this “cost of doing business,” groundwater and soil became so contaminated, that locals began developing stomach and uterine cancer and birth defects.
In 1992, Texaco handed over the polluting operations to Petroecuador, and walked away from what had really turned into a ...

As a coal finance campaigner, I often see scumbag behavior from King Coal and the banks that love them on a regular basis. But then I forget that we have the mother of all monster industries, Big Oil, that often dwarfs what these mining and utility companies are up to.

What do you do when RBC’s lawyers threaten to sue you?
The Understory : Understory.RAN.org —
Several weeks ago – while we were busy organizing a banner hang at the headquarters of Royal Bank of Canada, the world’s biggest funder of the tar sands – a senior lawyer from RBC faxed us a very polite letter, letting us know that if we didn’t stop using their corporate logo in our campaign materials they would consider suing us.
Now, the idea that they’d actually sue us is fairly ridiculous. Activists use and parody corporations’ logos all the time (see here, and here, and here, and here), but lawsuits against activists ...
