Bayer CropScience Explosion MIC News Story 4 23 09
Two Investigative news stories look into the secrecy behind the deadly Bayer CropScience Chemical Plant Explosion that occurred in Institute, WV on August 28, 08. Bayer endangered the lives of the public, two employees were killed, six emergency responders were sickened and a tank full of the deadly chemical methyl isocyanate was close to exploding. One of the men who died, Barry Withrow, had a toxic level of cyanide in his blood that no one has been able to explain. Sixteen air monitoring devices meant to detect chemical releases and video cameras were not working or had been disabled.The Institute plant stores the largest amount of methyl isocyanate (MIC) in the world. Around 40000 pounds of MIC are stored above ground here. Below ground is an additional storage tank that can hold up to 200000 pounds of MIC. Congressional investigators concluded that the explosion could have easily damaged the nearby MIC storage tank and triggered a disaster that would have been worse than Bhopal. An explosion at Union Carbide twenty five years ago in Bhopal India released 50000-90000 pounds of methl isocyanate gas exposing around 500000 people to deadly toxins. Within 72 hours about 8-10000 people died. Since then it is estimated that over 25, 0000 people have died from toxic gas related diseases. These numbers do not include the hundreds of thousands of people who continue to suffer from gas related illness or are born with them.

Seismic Seconds - The Bhopal Gas Disaster Part 1 of 3
The Bhopal disaster was an industrial catastrophe that took place at a pesticide plant owned and operated by Union Carbide (UCIL) in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India on December 3, 1984. Around 12 AM, the plant released methyl isocyanate (MIC) gas and other toxins, resulting in the exposure of over 500000 people. Estimates vary on the death toll. The official immediate death toll was 2259 and the government of MP has confirmed a total of 3787 deaths related to the gas release. Other government agencies estimate 15000 deaths. Others estimate 8000 to 10000 died within 72 hours and 25000 have since died from gas-related diseases. Some 25 years after the gas leak, 390 tonnes of toxic chemicals abandoned at the UCIL plant continue to leak and pollute the groundwater in the region and affect thousands of Bhopal residents who depend on it, though there is some dispute as to whether the chemicals still stored at the site pose any continuing health hazard. There are currently civil and criminal cases related to the disaster ongoing in the United States District Court, Manhattan and the District Court of Bhopal, India against Union Carbide, now owned by Dow Chemical Company, with an Indian arrest warrant pending against Warren Anderson, CEO of Union Carbide at the time of the disaster. No one has yet been prosecuted. The UCIL factory was established in 1969 near Bhopal. 50.9 % was owned by Union Carbide Corporation (UCC) and 49.1 % by various Indian investors, including public sector <b>...</b>

Bhobal disaster probe crimes, failures since 1984
Bhopal disaster 1984 - negligence, failures probed. The Bhopal disaster was an industrial catastrophe that took place at a pesticide plant owned and operated by Union Carbide India Limited (UCIL, US-India joint venture) in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India on around mid-night between 02/03 December 1984 when the poorly designed-maintained plant released a lethal dose of lethal gases (cheap methyl isocyanate, MIC, 40 tonnes) and other toxins into the atmosphere for over four hours. As a result, over the next five hours, the lethal poison resulted in the gassing over 520000 (including 200000 under 15-year old crippled for lifetime, and 3000 were pregnant women), killing over 23000 and disabling over 100000 people in toxin, lungs and gas-related diseases. 170000 people were treated at hospitals and temporary dispensaries. 2000 buffalo, goats, and other animals were collected and buried. Within a few days, leaves on trees yellowed and fell off. Due to criminal negligence, the Bhopal disaster was in the making for a number of years before the tragic 1984 event. Moreover, some 390 tonnes of toxic chemicals, abandoned at the UCIL plant, continue to leak and pollute and poison the water in the region and affect thousands of Bhopal residents who depend on it. Union Carbide Corp (UCC) was taken over since by Dow Chemical Company of the USA.

Bhopal Gas Tragedy Explore The Truth
Bhopal Gas Tragedy Explore The Truth
Bhopal gas tragedy, 26 Years and on During the early hours of 3 December 1984 the world's worst industrial accident unfolded in the Indian city of Bhopal. Poisonous gas escaped from a chemical plant and killed 3000 people, according to official estimates. Other estimates put the number at between 8000 and 10000. Around 50000 suffered permanent disabilities, and more died later. City in danger Many people lived in shanty towns built alongside the factory and thousands more lived nearby in the old city. There was no contingency plan for evacuation in the event of an emergency. Poor sales had led the company to cut costs, scale back production and lay off around a third of the workforce. Safety systems had also been cut. Lethal chemical The main ingredient of the pesticide made at the plant was a chemical called methyl isocyanate or MIC. MIC is one of the most toxic and lethal substances known to humans. Safe storage requires it to be kept cool and isolated from water, which can trigger a violent runaway reaction creating heat and a deadly gas. The leak A worker cleaning out pipes with water sparked the disaster. He did not use a basic but vital piece of equipment to isolate sections of pipe. Water got into the tank where the MIC was stored, raising the temperature to over 200 degrees Celsius (392F), creating the lethal gas. Several safety systems failed or were not working.

Kids for a Better Future take on Dow Chemicals
On the 25th Anniversary of the Bhopal Gas Disaster, Kids for a Better Future tried to give hundreds of hearts to DOW Chemicals. With new hearts, the hoped that the heartless company would finally take responsibility for its mess in Bhopal, where they have killed 25000 people and left another 150000 seriously ill. Scared silly of these kids, the company closed down its offices for the day and ran for cover. 1984 to Now: The Ongoing Disaster in Bhopal In the early hours of December 3rd, 1984, an immense cloud of poisonous gas began spewing out of the Union Carbide pesticide factory in Bhopal, India. Methyl isocyanate (MIC) and other deadly gases moved quickly through the city, overwhelming masses of people. For fear of compounding their legal liability, Union Carbide would not identify the chemical agents that fueled this catastrophe, leaving doctors to treat victims without an answer to their agony. Choking, with violent convulsions, many Bhopal residents drowned in their own body fluids. Thousands died that night. More than 27 tons of MIC and these other poisonous gases turned Bhopal into a gas chamber. It was soon revealed that none of the six safety systems at the Union Carbide plant were functional, and Union Carbide's own documents demonstrate convincingly that the company designed the plant with "unproven" and "untested" technology, cutting corners on safety and maintenance in an effort to save money.
