DOW CHEMICAL is being boycotted
because they marketed Agent Orange,
to the U.S. government
for use as a chemical defoliant in Vietnam
while hiding their knowledge
that it contained a dangerous
componant, dioxin.
U.S. soldiers exposed to Agent Orange
suffered serious and irrepairable damage,
as do their children.
Later, DOW marketed silicon breast implants
which leaked
causing immune system problems in the victims.
Today, "Greenpeace reports
that hugely produced chlorine based Dow products
-- pesticides, solvents and PVC plastics --
are the single largest source in the world of dioxin today."

Yes, the same company that makes ZIPLOCK BAGS
also made AGENT ORANGE and SILICON IMPLANTS.
Do you really want to give them your money?
"In the Multinational Monitor of October 1991,
Jack Doyle writes in a story titled
'Du Pont's Disgraceful Deeds':
'Du Pont is the single largest corporate polluter
in the United States.'"

"Monsanto [was] exposed for having rigged
a dioxin study in its favor (it made Agent Orange)"
