GreenPeace releases poison report

From GreenPeace:

On Thursday, we released a hard hitting report titled 'Nga Matitapu o te Hakino - People Poisoned Daily' at Parliament in Wellington.

The report shows how the whakapapa or 'genetic heritage' of New Zealanders has been contaminated by deadly dioxins released by Dow Agrosciences Ltd. in Paritutu, New Plymouth. You can download it from our website.

With the launch of the report we're asking that the Government acknowledge the problem by developing specialist health care centres and social services for people poisoned by dioxin, and that DOW set up a national fund to compensate the people and families who were poisoned by dioxin produced by the company.

Please support us and those people affected by using our easy online form to send a message to the Hon. Annette King, Minster of Health and Hon. Marion Hobbs, Minister of the Environment.

Thank you for your support!

All the best,
