For many years now, I have been appalled by the deadly chemical war unleashed on this unsuspecting planet by companies like 'Dow Chemicals'. In the name of science and progress, these corporations are responsible for the unimaginable suffering of millions of people around the world. I have had the humble privilege of working with one of these communities, the people of Bhopal, survivors of the world's worst chemical disaster, in their struggle for justice. Motivated by them, I stopped going to forests and mountains to seek solace and instead went to toxic hot spots to understand reality. Many of those stories, you will find in the Toxic Tours section on this page. And along the way I finally met real life heroes and lot of inspiration. Some day I will write about Sathyu, Navroz, Nity, Jose, but today I want you to visit the following link to see an amazing set of images and stories from the website of a brilliant writer, creator and friend of Bhopal, Indra Sinha, who exposes the truth behind Dow, with stunning artwork and disturbing words. http://www.indrasinha.com/masks.html
