It is 25 years since the Bhopal disaster and in today's Guardian there is a massively affecting major article on it. I defy anyone to not be both moved and enraged by the tales of horror, incompetence and political apathy/suppression. You really have to get the paper version, though to see the full range of photos. They're astounding - in a bad way.
I'm not much of a political activist type, but when reading those tales of suffering and of how Union Carbide pretty much just walked away from the site afterwards, it makes me wish for some kind of mob justice to be visited upon their top - and middle - brass. The place is still poisonous as hell even now.
