=o= I've found a bunch of sources of info on Waste Management.
=o= The first is Rachel's Hazardous Waste News, which is
available online at this URL:
gopher://ftp.std.com/11/FTP/world/periodicals/rachel
If you don't have Gopher or a web browser, you can FTP them:
ftp://ftp.std.com/periodicals/rachel
=o= Another resources is this publication:
Waste Management, Inc.:
An Encyclopedia of Environmental Crimes and Other Misdeeds
by Greenpeace 1991
=o= Finally, here's something that was put about by the District
Attorney for the city of San Diego, California:
Final Report: Waste Management, Inc.
by Erwin L. Miller, Jr.
March 1992
(WMI sued to force the recall of all copies of this report.)
=o= It should be noted that the strategies used by Waste
Management and its ilk are changing. The usual pattern
has been to dump or incinerate toxic waste in economically-
disadvantaged communities. Grassroots groups in these
communities have been fighting this pattern and working for
solutions based on waste reduction.
=o= The toxic waste industry has responded by looking for
even more disadvantaged communities around the world. This
is what underlies my previous posting to alt.activism under
this subject, Greenpeace's warning to Europe to "Beware of
Waste Management, Inc."
=o= Greenpeace's toxics campaign have a gopher site devoted
to this cause:
