Texaco 30 Times Worst than Exxon Valdez
National and international diffusion about the ecological genocide caused by US Texaco in the Ecuadorian Amazonia, estimated at 30 times worse than the Exxon Valdez oil spill disaster, has the company on the rack and trying to shift the blame.

Now that the world is aware of the contamination caused by Texaco in the region, that entity is trying to blame Petroecuador for its wrongdoings, the FDA (Amazonia Defense Front) sustained in a release.

However, scientific tests and other evidence corroborate that zones other than those operated by the Ecuadorian state company are contaminated.

The text recalled that Petroecuador was in charge of wells exploited by Texaco after that company left the country in 1992, which corroborates that regional contamination began with the US entity s hydrocarbon operations.

Foreign experts sustain this is the world s worst environmental disaster ever caused by oil extraction, as it is estimated Texaco threw 18 billion gallons of toxic water, and left 1,000 ponds full of crude oil in the Ecuadorian forest.
