The evil continues

Continuing with the evil, there are several movies in the cinema where it is shown how people affected by great contamination by companies have fought to the death for having been infected.

The big companies, the multi-million dollar ones, have so much money that they have the luxury of sending out studies to verify that they are the pollutants of water for the use of entire populations, and after having discovered the total responsibility of the fact they simply pay again to silence the evidence.

There is a movie that I like and watch often and it stars Julia Roberts who played the role of a woman named Erin Brockovich who fought fiercely against the contamination of a city even against the multi-billion dollar company that was behind it all.

That company sickened and sickened many people and far from taking responsibility for polluting the water with mercury very cleverly blamed the people for their illnesses. Until this girl came along and cared about those people as human beings, feeling empathy for their cases. She fought until she won and then she continued to do so, always united with a law firm that fought against the transnationals that pollute the environment.

You know, this is not the first time I read something so frightening. In industrialized countries, they pollute the environment very often and they do the same as in this movie taken from real-life cases and in our present times.

I do not understand how money poisons the soul of the people who possess it. Money and love of neighbor do not go hand in hand. The bible says it well. They make people so selfish and so vile that they know they destroy lives and yet they pay for people to think they are to blame for their many lethal diseases.

I read yesterday about a case that happened many, many years ago in a town in the United States where the company worked with Radium, which we now know is highly polluting. In the company, they gave work to women who at first accepted the job because they were assured that Radium was not toxic and even women in those times were not given much of the existing jobs because of discrimination.

Over the years women began to have all kinds of diseases from their mouths to their intestines. And over time despite the billionaires who opposed the truth, even though they knew the truth because they did their diagnostic tests and then shut them up. The truth emerged after many deaths and struggles. The women were not listened to until over the years a lawyer took up the case. Many deaths before the truth came out to the world.

What worries me most is that it happened at the beginning of industrialization and since then it has been growing today transnationals continue to pollute the environment, spilling toxic gases and liquids into the environment and that does not intimidate them.

It is man's war against his species and as long as it generates income for them these alterations in the environment do not matter to them. They continue to make people who live near these companies sick and continue to manipulate the truth. It is a never-ending story, with no turning back and with a view to the progressive degeneration of the human species.

How far man's greed, wickedness, and selfishness will go. May God have mercy on us.

What you wrote is 100%true. In industrialization billionaires play silently with the support of government. The common man is the one who suffers the after effects.

Es cierto lo que dices @gertru13, los poderosos en este casos los millonarios no les importan si contaminan o no el ambiente, apoyado por los gobierno, ellos con tal que ganen más dinero, no se preocupan por nada, la codicia, avaricia y el mal van agarrado de las misma manos.

Man's wickedness, greed, and selfishness are going beyond expected gertu. What is seen on movie about evil is reflected in reality. People are not blind about it, greed is the number one reason for all evil based on my own opinion. I hope everyone would know how to possess good traits and rebuild character but I do understand that nothing is perfect in the world. Thanks for this well written article Gertu.

The disease nowadays are also upgrading and alarming. Though the chemicals around us too have contributions, yet as long as it is use to generate income, nobody tends to hind its usage. Sad but true that we mankind is the cause in everything around us.

I told a friend the other day that man is the cause of its own problem, he asked me to explained my statement. I will forward this article to him to see for himself. We have allowed greed take over our minds that we are not concerned about the comfortability of others, all we want is to accumulate more wealth. I pity the world in the next 50 years.

truth is beating ourselves for things we couldn't change is totally a waste of time, rather try your best effort, it could bring about a change.

We are the main cause of environmental pollution in our country. The cause of environmental pollution is understood by listening to the story of the movie you have seen.
