Greenpeace Sues Chemical Companies for Corporate Espionage
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYMdEJSr1Vk&feature=player_embedded#!
Greenpeace has filed a lawsuit against two major chemical companies and their PR firms for corporate espionage. The complaint alleges that Dow Chemical and Sasol—formerly CONDEA Vista—hired private investigators to spy on Greenpeace in the late 1990s. The charges of espionage center on surveillance of the Greenpeace office in Washington, D.C., and the infiltration of a community group in St. Charles, Louisiana, that was working with Greenpeace on dioxin contamination. Greenpeace accuses the corporations of engaging in this level of surveillance "with the intention of preempting, blunting, or thwarting" the organization's environmental advocacy campaigns. For more on this story, Democracy Now! speaks with Greenpeace USA senior researcher Charlie Cray. Dow Chemical declined to comment on the lawsuit.
