BY DONNA GETZ
Read your articles about Royal Dutch Shell. It makes me sick what they can get away with.
I am going to tell you what happened to myself and my family.
We were caretaking a ranch near Tumbler Ridge, BC about six years ago. We were looking after their horses and ours. We never received payment for this.
Unknown to us, Shell Oil was drilling a well 3 km across country from us.
When they started to flare the well, something went wrong. We got hurt from this. The spruce trees had golden patches on them, the leaves on the cottonwood turned upside down, the game left or died. Four of our horses died over time from this and we have one that is still wheezing from it. I have 30% lungs left, my husband and daughter 50% left. Our truck we had at the time, rusted out on one side.
The Oil and Gas Commission came out and took pictures, etc. They told me to forget about my face, my family and animals because Shell was putting money into the community, they were staying in the hotels, eating at restaurants and spending time in the pubs. I have letters from two politicians, Blair Lekstrom and Richard Neufeld (now a senator) saying the same thing.
Shell flew me to Edmonton to specialists. They told me I was okay. While I was there, the Shell rep took the specialists aside and talked to them. Later on they received money from Shell. Did I get a good report or a bought report?
We later went to specialists on our own and found out that we lost lung function. We also found out that when the specialist was flushing our lungs out that the saline solution turned to a white foam. He told us we could not live by the ocean or be near it for long as this foam would form in our lungs. We cannot live in the gas fields.
We obtained a lawyer, Brian Sutton from Naniamo, BC. He led us on for over five years then told us we did not have enough money to fight Shell. He wanted to get off the case. We tried to get a second opinion and no lawyer in BC will look at the case or talk to us. In the mean time, Shell put it into court and the judge said we had to pay Shell costs. Their lawyer just sent us a bill. We have no money, no lawyer and no law. I talked to Shell's lawyer after we received the bill.
I took Brian Sutton to the Law Society of BC and they found lots of wrong doings. They are disciplining him but that still doesn't help us. We do not know where to go from here.
We were shocked by what we read on your website. We will never buy Shell products and haven't for a long time.
Go ahead and publish, it cannot do any more harm to us. It may even help us and other people. We are going to start letting it be known all over the world. It is sad when a company like Shell can make it so a person who is hurt by them has no recourse. Besides what they did with the flaring, they wanted to go back in the same hole to fix what went wrong but couldn't do it while we were there so they had us run out of Tumber Ridge. We had no money and no place to go. My husband's disabled sister in Norway gave us some money to move away.
The people who had the ranch threw us out. They figured that Shell, Western Canada Coal and Encana were going to pay them money for the ranch. They ended up with nothing, they cannot even stay overnight on the ranch.
Shell Oil has a rep on the Oil and Gas Commission Board. Good regulatory body for the gas companies, isn't it. It's like asking the fox to take care of the chickens!!
Thank you for your time.

LAMPSHADES MADE FROM HUMAN SKIN
Royal Dutch Shell
and the
lampshades
made from
HUMAN SKIN
The Sun newspaper has published an article horrifically confirming,following a DNA test, that a lampshade bought at a New Orleans car boot sale is made from human skin. A gruesome relic from Nazi crimes against humanity in the 2nd World War. As the main financier of the Nazis, does Royal Dutch Shell bear any moral (or legal) responsibility for the crimes of Hitler and his equally evil henchmen?Extract:
We've all heard the stories of the Nazi human lampshades.There have been many fakes over the years but no proven examples of a real Nazi lamp made from the skin of Jewish prisoners in concentration camps during the Second World War.However, one crucial early scientific test set this lamp apart.When Mark, an American, sent a small piece away for DNA testing at Bode Technology near Washington DC it came back as "100 per cent human".Royal Dutch Shell had no involvement in the concentration camps, but driven by greed, the company did in the crucial years prior to the 2nd World War, save the Nazi party from financial collapse and continue to pump funds into the Nazi regime in a variety of ways.
Greed and fat cat egotism won out over mere moral considerations. Shell knowingly collaborated directly with Hitler and the Nazis – the most evil regime in history. Without Shell's financial backing, history might have unfolded without the horrors of the 2nd World War.
What transpired all those years ago obviously has no reflection on current Shell employees, the vast majority of whom are decent hard working people.
Those events do however stain forever the name of Royal Dutch Shell and the brand name by which the company is best known throughout the world: Shell.

SHELL NAZI SECRETS
ROYAL DUTCH SHELL NAZI SECRETS
Posted on November 6th, 2010
by John Donovan in All News
Read 130 times.
By Alfred Donovan and John Donovan
We have previously revealed how Royal Dutch Shell Group and its founder, Sir Henri Deterding, saved the Nazi Party when it was in danger of financial collapse.
After considerable further research, we have now published in 9 parts, extensive information revealing the variety of ways Shell found to provide huge financial support to the most evil regime in history.
We also provide comprehensive information/evidence of how Royal Dutch Shell (and/or its German subsidiary): -
- was arguably indirectly responsible for over 30 million deaths in World War 2
- sold out its own Jewish employees to the Nazis, some of whom did not survive the war
- instructed its employees in the Netherlands to complete a form giving particulars about their descent, which for some, amounted to a self-declared death warrant
- engaged in anti-Semitic policies against Shell employees
- financed the Nazis
- appeased the Nazis
- collaborated with the Nazis
- used slave labor
- conspired directly with Hitler
- got into bed with I.G. Farben, the notorious Nazi run chemical giant that supplied the Zyklon-B gas used during the Holocaust to exterminate millions of people, including children
- continued the partnership with the Nazis in the years after the retirement of Sir Henri as the Chief Executive of the Royal Dutch Shell Group and even after his death
All information is supported by independent verifiable evidence from reputable sources.
We have also published stunning photographs as further evidence of the Royal Dutch Shell/Nazi association.
With the except of the section headed "BRIBERY & CORRUPTION" in Part 7, Shell (via Mr Richard Wiseman) has had advance sight of all nine parts,including associated photographs/graphics, plus the information under the heading "Authors relationship with Shell". Royal Dutch Shell was invited to correct any inaccurate information and supply any comment to be published alongside the article on an unedited basis. No response was forthcoming. Some minor editing has taken place as part of the proof reading process. Nothing substantial has changed.

BACK TO BUSINESS
FROM BILL CAMPBELL, FORMER GROUP AUDITOR OF SHELL INTERNATIONAL TO EVERY UK MP AND MEMBER OF THE HOUSE OF LORDS: SENT FROM 24 JULY 2007
Subject: This could be the most important whistleblower email you have ever received.
Some unfortunate Royal Dutch Shell workers have already lost their lives. More lives are at stake.
My name is Bill Campbell. I am a former Group Auditor of Shell International. I am writing to you on a matter of conscience in an effort to avert the inevitability of another major accident in the North Sea. The consequences could potentially impact on families in many constituencies, including your own.
As Royal Dutch Shell and the Health & Safety Executive would acknowledge, I am an expert on safety matters relating to offshore oil and gas platforms. In 1999, I was appointed by Shell to lead a safety audit on the Brent Bravo platform. The audit revealed a platform management culture that basically gave a higher priority to production than the safety of Shell employees. To our astonishment we discovered that a "Touch F*** All" policy was in place. Worse still, safety records were routinely falsified and repairs bodged.
I personally brought the shocking situation to the attention of senior management including Malcolm Brinded, the then Managing Director of Shell Exploration & Production. I revealed that ESDV leak-off tests were purposely falsified, not once but many times and that Brent Bravo platform management had admitted responsibility for the dangerous practices being followed. In response to my team ringing alarm bells, management pledged to rectify the serious problems which had been uncovered.
When I later complained that the pledges were not being kept, I was removed from my oversight function.
Four years later, a massive gas leak occurred on the platform. Two workers lost their lives. I have no doubt at all that the inaction of the relevant Asset Manager, the General Manager, the Oil Director and Malcolm Brinded, contributed in some part to the unlawful killing of two persons on Brent Bravo in September 2003.
Shell subsequently pleaded guilty to breaches of the HSE regulations and a record-breaking £900,000 fine was imposed. I thought this would bring about a real change in policy to put the emphasis on safety.
Unfortunately I was wrong. Although I supplied the evidence related to 1999, and the fact that there had been a collapse in controls of integrity from 1999 to 2003 on all 16 of Shell's North Sea offshore installations covered in a post fatality integrity review to the HSE for review by the Procurator Fiscal, none of this evidence was presented before the Sheriff at the subsequent Inquiry. The situation is explained in a letter to the Procurator Fiscal and the Sheriff (on 24th February 2007).
Shell management has engaged in spin to try to pretend that it is getting to grips with its safety problem. However, its atrocious safety record – the worst in the North Sea in terms of accidental deaths and absolute number of enforcement actions - tells a different story. This fact has resulted in a number of newspaper articles.
I have had meetings with senior Shell people including its CEO Mr. Jeroen van der Veer. I regret to say that I have found him to be economical with the truth. He prefers to support cover-up and deceit rather than confronting the underlying problems. Brinded is now Executive Director of Shell Exploration & Production. He believes in burying evidence.
My family and friends would probably prefer me to give up on this matter and enjoy my retirement after so many years working for Shell.
However, by writing to every MP in the UK, no one can ever say that I did not do my best to avert an inevitable further major accident event in the North Sea. When it happens (I pray that I am wrong) I will make this warning communication available to the media together with the vast amount of evidence in my possession.
At least my conscience is clear. I have done everything possible to ring the alarm bells about Shell management and its unscrupulous attitude to the safety of its employees.
Yours sincerely
Bill Campbell

TIA NENE
MAALAALA MO KAYA
Dear Charo,
Para sa pinakamamahal kong Tia Nene.
Sa buhay ng tao may mga pagkakataon na tayo ay kailangan na pumili ng nang mga bagay na haharapin natin at mga bagay na tatalikdan. At tulad ng mga kababayan natin na nangibang bansa...sila tulad ko sa pagsuong nila sa hamon ng pag hanap ng magandang kapalaran sa ibang bayan eh naranasan na rin nila ang bigat ng kalooban sa paglisan lalo at higit sa pagkakataong ang taong aalis ay may iiwan mahal sa buhay na nasa malubhang karamdaman.....
Marso 2008...takdang paglipad namin mag asawa at bunsong anak tungong Amerika.......umalis kami iwan ang aming dalawang anak na dalaga at isang apo at ang aking ina-inahan na may malubhang kapansanan sa balakang...siya si Tia Nene at ang kuento ng buhay niya ang ilalahad ko sa iyo ngayon.....
Dear Charo,
Salamat sa mga pagkakataong ipinagkaloob ng Panginoon na magkaroon kami ng pagkakataong magkakilala...magkasama..maging bahagi ng buhay ng isat-isa... pagkakataon na naranasan ko ang pagkakaroon ng dalawang tatawaging aking ina...dalawang ina na nagbuhos ng pagmamahal, pag-aaruga, pag gabay at pag-unawa, higit noong aking kamusmusan.
Dear Charo,
Malapit sa akin si Tia Nene sa dahilang sa aming walong magkakapatid ay ako ang nagkaroon kaagad ng kasunod sa loob ng isang taon at isang buwan, isang dahilan na kapag ako ay may pangangailangan bilang bata ay si Tia Nene na ang tumutugon dahil sa ang aking ina ay ang abala na sa mas nakababatang anak na sumunod sa akin.
Naala-ala ko pa na kapag ako ay matutulog ay di ako makatulog ng hindi ko katabi si Tia Nene. Tatawagin ko siya habang siya ay nasa silong at nananahi..ramdam kong hihinto ang makina at dinig ko ang mga yabag ng hakbang niya patungo sa aking tabi...nandyan nasiya.. himbing naman ako agad .. maaring pagkatulog ko ay muli nyang itutuloy ang kanyang pananahi ...yun di ko na alam.
Ngunit ang aking higit na natatandaan ay kapag ako ay may sakit o lagnat: pupunasan nya ako at lalagyan ang aking noo ng kapirasong katsa na basa ng suka ..at paiinumin ng medicol o kaya cortal at babantayan na nya ako hanggang ako ay tuluyan nang gumaling... kapag naman ako ay papasok sa Central (school) ay siya ang nagpapaligo at nagbibihis sa akin at naghahanda ng pagkain at gamit sa pagpasok... at pagkadating ko naman eh sya ang magpapalit ng aking damit na basa ng pawis at bibihisan naman ako ng pambahay at panlaro.
Magtatapos ang dekada 50 noong natatandaan kong isinama ako ni Tia Nene sa bulubundukin ng Baguilawa, akay akay nya ako tungo sa paradahan ng dyip patungong Baguilawa ..yun na siguro ang huling biyahe dahilang hapon na, palubog na ang araw at konti na lang ang mga tao sa palengke... punong puno ang dyip ng pasahero,ng sako.. sako ng bigas, pakain sa baboy...
patuka..gaas...mga kung ano-anong bagay na pinamalengke... basta alam ko nakatayo ako sa loob ng dyip sa harapan ni Tia Nene ... nakakapit ako sa hawakan na nasa likod ng driver na nakaupong patagilid upang mapagkasya ang may ilang tao sa harapan ..bukod pa ang ilang pasahero na nakaupo sa ibabaw ng hood... ganoon pa man ang karga ng dyip ay nakakatakbo pa rin ito..tanda ko rin ang pangalan ng dyip.. TITA-ME.
Ilang sandali pa ay pinaandar na ng driver ang dyip na Tita-me at dumaan kami sa isang tulay na bato at pagkatapos ay dalawa namang makipot na tulay na may bahaging bakal at ang gitna ay dalawang malapad na tabla akma sa lugal na daraanan ng gulong ng sasakyan...bagaman kahit ito ay bakal hindi naman maari na magsalubungan ang sasakyan dahil sa ito ay makipot at maliiit lamang...pagkatapos lumagpas sa ikalawang tulay na bakal ay mga ilang saglit ay kumanan na ang Tita-me at nagsimula na magbago ang ugong ng makina ..naging malagong na parang nagagalit na dinosaur at pagdating sa may kataasan ay natambad na sa aking paningin ang unti-unting paglitaw ng mga ilaw sa tabi ng karagatan habang lumalaganap ang karimlan..kay gandang malasin at sariwaain kahit sa isipan lang...Dito sa pagdalaw na ito ng Tia Nene sa Baguilawa, una kong namalas ang kagandahan ng tabihang dagat ng Bauan. Dito rin noong panahong iyon natikman ang gulay na purong malunggay na may sangkap na bawang na isasabaw sa kanin na sa paglapat sa aking dila ay .. ito ay aking pagugulungin sa aking dila at sa sarap ng langhap at dulas ng kanin ay tuloy tuloy agad iyon sa aking lalamunan...at kinabukasan naman para sa pananghalian ay inihuli at ipinagpatay kami ng dumalagang manok na tagalog at lutong may lahok na papaya at dahon ng sili.
Sa akin namang paglalaro ay naging kasama-sama si Tanoy, isang kababata na taga roon, sa pagkuyabit sa puno ng chico sa likod ng kanilang bahay na malapit sa school.
Halos kahit saan mang lugal na magpunta si Tia Nene ay nais kong sumama o humahabol ako, kaya kahit sa pamimili ni Tia Nene at pagbibili ng tapilan ay naging kasakasama niya ako. Noon ibibili nya ako ng dalawang pirasong pan de sal na kapag pinagsagup ay sinlaki na ng aking ulo noong panahong iyon at iiwan na niya ako sa gilid ng isang tindahan sa palengke na kinatatayuan ng ngayon ay Bay Mall. Habang siya ay namimili ay utay utay ko namang nginungotngot o kinakain ang dalawang pan de sal at sa loob ng dalawang oras ay makikita ko na ang sarili ko nakaupo na sa ibabaw ng dalawang sako ng tapilan na salop salop na pinamili ni Tia Nene. Pagkatapos ay isinakay namin yun sa dyip na biyaheng Lipa para doon naman ipagbili.
Hindi mawala sa aking ala-ala noong ibaba namin sa loob ng palengke ang sako ng tapilan. Mula sa loob ng dyip ay itinulak ni Tia Nene ang sako na puno ng tapilan sa pamamagitan ng paa, na saglit lang na lumapat ang sako ng tapilan sa daan nang biglang darating ang kasunod na dyip at sinagasaan ang sako ng tapilan. Wala na akong iba pang natandaan liban lang sadinadakot namin ang mga kumalat na tapilan at isinasalin sa ibang sako.. buti na lang at di naman kami nasaktan. Ngunit ako ay nabahala na baka sa nangyaring yun sa tapilan ay di na makayanan ni Tia Nene na bayaran pa ang inutang na 5 daang piso na puhunan sa Bauan Rural Bank. Nasabi ni Tia Nene ang bagay na yun at itinanong niya sa akin na kung di siya makabayad at siya ay makulong ay ano ang aking gagawin. Ako ay nag-isip papaano nga baga iyon? Sagot ko sa kanya eh, sasama ako sa kanya sa kulungan. Sa kabutihang palad sa awa ng Diyos nakabayad naman siya sa kanyang inutang.
Maging sa pag-ibig ..mukhang ako ay naging balakid sa mga nais manligaw noon kay Tia Nene.Sinumang binatang parang umaaligid sa kanya ay nakakaranas ng aking pagtutol sa pamamagitan isang putol na kahoy na panggatong na aking kinukuha sa ilalim ng abuhan... palagay ko kapag hindi lumayo yun manliligaw nayun o di tumakbo ay matitikman niya ang gulpe buhat sa hampas ng panggatong na bitbit ko. Nanatili na ngang dalaga si Tia Nene noong panahong yaon.
Gayunpaman noong magtatapos ang taong 1978 ay naipaalam ko kay Tia Nene ang aking balak na mag-asawa na sa Mayo 1979 ngunit, makailang araw naman ay sinabi sa akin ni Tia Nene na magpapakasal na raw sila ng Tio Idro sa Enero, una ng mga 5 buwan sa takdang kasal ko. Ako ay nagulat di ko kasi akalain na iibig pa si Tia Nene, dahil kahit na minsan ay di ko nakita na harapin ni Tia Nene si Tio Idro..tanda ko pa na pumapanhik sa balkonahe ang Tio Idro upang manligaw ay mabilis namang bumababa sa batalan ang Tia Nene, hindi lang isang beses kong nasaksihan ang ganoong eksena kundi napakaraming beses ...kaya noong sabihin sa aking mag-papakasal na sila ng Tio Idro ...papaano nangyari yun, ang tanong ko sa sarili ko..siguro natakot rin si Tia Nene na sa pag-aasawa ko ay mahirap mabuhay ng solo... kaya gagawin niya iyon o dili kaya ay matagal na rin niyang pinipigil na magmahal dahil sa akin.
Nagpakasal nga sila ni Tio Idro noong Enero 1979 at ako naman noong dumating ang Mayo.. naging maligaya si Tia Nene sa piling ng Tio Idro ngunit sa di katagalan ay lumisan na sa daigdig si Tio Idro at noon namuhay ng solo si Tia Nene.. ang pagkamatay na yun ni Tio Idro ay isang mabigat na dalahin sa kanyang kalooban ngunit itong dalahin ay higit na bumigat noong bahay na kanilang tirahan ay nasunog at halos walang naisalbang ari-arian...sinabi ko sa kanya na sumama na lang sa amin at pumayag naman siya..pero tuwing hapon ay napapansin kong siya ay lumuluha ...at itinanong ko kung bakit..ani niya nagpapakita raw sa kanya si Tio Idro at itinatanong kung bakit siya ay nasa amin ganong me bahay naman daw sila...kaya sinabi ko sa kanya na huwag mag-alaala at magtatayo muli tayo ng bahay sa lugal ng nasunog na dati nilang bahay.. nayari at lumipat na muli si Tia Nene sa kanyang bagong bahay..
Nakita kong muli ang kaligayahan sa kanyang mukha subalit isang pangyayari na hindi nais ni Tia Nene na mangyari sa kanya ang naganap noong siya bagaman malakas pa sa edad 88 ay nadulas habang nagpupunas ng basang sahig sa kusina dahilan para mapataktak sa sahig na semento ang kanyang balakang at nagmula noon ay di na muli siyang nakatayo at nakalakad...sa ganoong kondisyon ay sinamahan ko na siya sa kanyang bahay at ako ang nag-intindina ng kanyang pangangailangan sa tulong na rin ng iba pa niyang pamangkin. pinagtulong tulungan naming mapaginhawa ang kanyang kalagayan.
Ngunit talagang mapagbiro ang tadhana dahil makalipas naman halos ang isang lingo ay dumating naman sa akin ang abiso ng US embassy na approve na raw ang immigrant petition puntang Amerika na dalawamput apat na taon kong hinintay at schedule na raw kami for interview para sa immigrant petition namin tungong Amerika.... hindi ko na ito kaagad sinabi kay Tia Nene dahil ayaw ko siyang mag-ala-ala..ngunit ang ilang beses kong pagluwas luwas para sa requirements ng petition ay di na nailihim sa kanya..marahil kapag ako ay wala eh, merong di sinasadyang nabangit sa kanyang maaring kami ay aalis patungong Amerika..ito ay itinanong niya sa akin...sagot ko eh, kung papalarin ho..at siya ay lumuha ...sambit niya ... sana mamayapa muna siya bago ako umalis..nayakap ko siya at pinalakas ang loob ..sabi ko ...gagaling pakayo at pagbabalik ko ay magaling na kayo...
Dear Charo,
Damang dama ko ang bigat na dinadala ni Tia Nene noong mga sandaling iyon.Ang batang itinuring niyang isang tunay na anak at inaasahan na aalalay sa kanya sa kanyang katandaan eh, sa mga pagkakataong iyon ay nagpapahiwatig ng paglisan kung kelan pang nasa malubha siyang kalagayan. Pakiwari ko ang sakit na kanyang nararamdaman sa kanyang kalooban ay lalong higit na masakit kesa sa sakit dulot ng kirot ng bali ng kanyang balakang na sa bawat kibo ay maririnig ko ang kanyang daing, huni,at haluyhoy....kirot na di na maampat ng anumang pain reliever na kanyang iniinom.
Ang bahay niya ay may kalayuan sa bahay na tirahan namin inisip kong kumbinsihin siya na sumama na sa aming bahay para lagi siyang matingnan ng aking dalawang anak na dalaga kung sakaling kami ay umalis patungong Amerika.
Dahan dahan o unti unti niyaya ko na siya sa amin na sumama..dahil mahirap para sa mga anak ko na alagaan siya sa San Diego Barangay 4 habang ang mga anak ko naman ay nasa Markaban, Barangay 2... una bantulot si Tia Nene na lumipat sa amin ngunit bandang huli ay pumayag na rin siya.
Makalipas ang 5 buwan ay napatakda na ang paglipad namin tungong Amerika isang bagay na napakabigat gawin sa ganoong kalagayan nag-alaga sa akin na dapat ay aking aalagaan sa kanyang kalagayan ay aking maiiwan.. naala-ala ko pa ang laging tanong niya sa akin kung huhugasan ko ang kanyang puwit pag siya ay matanda na ... ang sagot ko ay .. oho pero ngayon ako ang dapat maghugas sa kanya ay siya itong mapapalayo.. tanda ko pa kapag ako ay may sakit ..tinatawag ko si Tia Nene ...kagyat nandyan agad siya sa aking tabi.. ngayong alam kong ako naman ang kanyang tinatawag ay di ko nagawang tabihan siya...patawad Tia Nene ..alam ko nauunawaan niya ako..Laging ganoon ..lagi niya akong inuunawa at pinagbibigyan.. mula noong bata hihilahin ko ang kamay niya hanggang makarating sa plaza kung fiesta at ituturo ko sa kanya ang laruang gitarang lata na may tansing kuerdas at iyon ay binibili agad niya sa akin tulad rin ng baril barilang yari sa palayok na hiniling ko sa kanya ay agad rin binili niya para sa akin ....
Laking pasasalamat ko kay Tia Nene sa kanyang paglingap, pag unawa at pagmamahal sa akin at maging sa aking mga anak. Batid ko ang pagnanais ni Tia Nene na ako ay makita bago siya pumanaw at iyon ay kanyang pinagtiisan at batid ko inialay niya yun para sa magandang kinabukasan ng aking mga anak. Para sa amin napakabait at dakila ni Tia Nene at iyon ay tatanawin naming malaking utang na loob sa kanya habang buhay.
Lubos na gumagalang,

BRAZIL COURT FINES SHELL
Brazil Court
Fines Shell,
Basf for Making
Workers Sick
The plant was built
in 1977 by Shell…
Dozens of former employees of
the plant have been diagnosed
with prostate, thyroid and other
types of cancer, circulatory,
liver and intestinal illnesses,
as well as infertility and sexual
impotence, the statement added.
SAO PAULO – A Brazilian court has ordered the local units of Basf SE and Royal Dutch Shell Plc to pay 1.1 billion reais ($628 million) to cover the cost of medical treatment and compensation for former workers made ill by toxic substances.
The sentence, which can be appealed, was handed down by Judge Maria Ines Correa de Cerqueira Cesar of the labor court in Paulinia, Sao Paulo state, where a pesticide plant operated between 1977-2002.
The judge ordered the companies to pay the cost of medical treatment for all of plant's former workers, as well as for the children of employees or contractors who were born during or after the time their parents worked at the factory.
Each of the beneficiaries of the court's ruling is to receive 64,500 reais ($36,860) and the companies also must pay 622.2 million reais ($355 million) in collective compensation for "moral damages," to be deposited in the Worker Protection Fund.
"The companies must assume an approximate total cost of 1.1 billion reais," the judge said.
The two companies also were given five days beginning Thursday to publish a statement on TV networks inviting former workers and their descendants to present health records showing they were affected by the contamination, while Basf also must do the same in a pair of large-circulation dailies on two Sundays.
The Labor Prosecutor's Office said in a statement that more than 1,000 workers at the plant and hundreds of their relatives will benefit from the ruling.
The plant was built in 1977 by Shell and sold in 1994 to American Cyanamid. That latter company was acquired in 2002 by Germany's Basf, which closed the plant two years later.
Following initial complaints, soil studies confirmed that the area's subsoil water had been contaminated by highly carcinogenic substances and significant quantities of chromium, vanadium and zinc.
Dozens of former employees of the plant have been diagnosed with prostate, thyroid and other types of cancer, circulatory, liver and intestinal illnesses, as well as infertility and sexual impotence, the statement added. EFE

Shell pipeline
documentary becomes
an international hit
By Adelina Campos
Thursday August 19, 2010
AN award-winning Irish
documentary
about the controversial
Corrib gas pipeline has struck
a chord
with the international
community after it was picked for
screening at two prestigious
international film festivals.
The Pipe follows the lives of
fishermen and farmers from
Rossport, Co Mayo, who rise
up against Shell Oil's plans to
build a pipeline for natural
gas through their county.
Both the Toronto International
Film Festival and the BFI
London Film Festival will be
showing the film which
received a
standing ovation
when it premiered
at the 22nd Galway Film
Fleadh.
Director Risteard O Domhnaill
told the Herald that he did not
expect such a positive response
or to win the Best Feature
Documentary Award at the
Galway event in July.
OVERWHELMING
"I was really stressed about
getting it ready for the Galway
festival, I didn't think about
the response we'd get," he said.
"I just wanted for people to see,
I didn't expect anything.
"I suppose it's timely, with the
BP crisis and all … It must have
struck a chord,"
the Tipperary native added.
The 25 documentaries that
will be shown at the Toronto
International Film Festival
were announced last week, and
Risteard said that he felt excited
to be included on the list.
"For me it was always about
getting the film shown in Ireland,
showing the people
the real story.
I looked at the list of
documentaries that will be
showing and it was scary.
"Credible, award-winning
documentary makers are on it,
Oscar winners …
It's overwhelming,
but good I suppose. We
don't care about competing,
if the story can travel that's
fantastic."

VIOLATION BY SHELL OF US EXPORT RESTRICTIONS
Alleged Shell
violation
of U.S. Export
Restrictions
NAME AND EMAIL ADDRESS OF WHISTLE BLOWER WITHHELD FROM PUBLICATION
Dear John,
As a Shell insider I need to stay anonymous but I will point you to the right story.
As you possible know, there are export restrictions to export software and technology which is US based to restricted countries like Iran, Sudan, Syria, North Korea and Cuba. Shell violates this export restrictions as Shell is using software and technology without a valid export license.
One example will be that in the joint venture from Shell and Sinopec both companies are using Microsoft Windows Operation system. They never got a valid license from the US government. It looks like that in some cases Shell take the business risk only for profit to make business with terrorists.
The joint venture in Iran is operating in
Etelaat Newspaper Building
South Naft Ave
Mirdamad Blvd
Other violations happen in Syria and Sudan.
The other problem there is that Shell help Sinopec also with technical expertise in exploration and production. This possible will also violate current restrictions special from the US.
Companies and special oil companies which support Iran run the risk to loose all government contracts with the US. You will not find any information on the official Shell website about the joint venture in Iran as Shell is trying very hard to hide this.
From my point of view the Shell export compliance office must be aware about the violation from software and technology. The top management, Malcolm Brinded up to the CEO must be aware about the other violations with the joint venture.
I trust you that you keep my address confidential and that you take this maybe as a starting point to challenge Shell. The public need to know about how unethical Shell run this business just for profit.
With kind regards
LEAKED SHELL INTERNAL E-MAILS
Leaked Shell
internal emails
reveal concern
over Corrib
subsea wells
By John Donovan
Published below is my self-explanatory correspondence with Royal Dutch Shell ethics boss Richard Wiseman, over the latest installment of leaked Shell internal emails, this time relating to the highly sensitive topic of the Corrib Gas Project in Ireland. More will follow.
The project has been dogged by controversy, including the jailing at Shell's behest of the "Rossport Five" – members of the local population who have deep concern over safety and other issues.
The string of Shell internal emails from March and April 2009, involve over half a dozen Shell employees and includes reference to senior Shell executives. The Shell people involved discuss concern over well ownership and issues relating to "long term suspension" of "subsea gas wells".
In this connection, one email says:
"In this case, risk may be mainly reputational rather than safety or environmental (subsea gas wells)."Note that it says "may be" mainly reputational. In other words, the risk could be to safety or the environment.
In view of recent events in the Gulf of Mexico and the just announced delay on the Corrib project resulting in a further 3 year extension of "long term suspension", the local population is likely to be alarmed at these revelations of internal concern at Shell that has not revealed to the public.

Dear Mr Wiseman
We have reason to believe that the leaked Shell internal emails below are authentic.
If you do not indicate otherwise within 24 hours, we will take the lack of a denial as confirmation of authenticity.
If you wish to supply any comment for unedited publication along with the emails, you are welcome to do so.
If you need more time to check this matter out, just let me know. As always our first priority is publishing accurate authentic information.
If there is any exceptional reason why we should not publish, please say so. As you know, on both occasions that Shell has asked us not to publish, indicating exceptional grounds, we have agreed not to do so. This will be our continuing policy.
Regards
John Donovan

Dear Mr Donovan
As ever, you should not take my silence to be an admission of authenticity. I am surprised that you continue to try to force an admission by default. I can by no means guarantee always to receive your emails within 24 hours of your sending them and in the interests of the accuracy and authenticity you claim to adhere to, I should have thought that you would never rely on silence as confirmation of your assertions, particularly in the light of the repeated requests from me and others that you do not do so.
Regards
Richard Wiseman

Dear Mr Wiseman
As I made plain, you only had to let me know if you needed more time to investigate. Whenever Shell has asked for more time to respond, we have always agreed.
Readers of the correspondence will be able to draw their own conclusions for your "silence" over the authenticity of the latest crop of Shell internal emails, as I do. Readers will also be able to draw their own conclusions about who is trying to be open, constructive and fair.
As I have stated previously, you are free to say that Shell would like us to cease giving the company the opportunity to comment on draft articles or on the authenticity of Shell internal documents and emails leaked to us. If you tell us that this is the case, then we will cease.
Thus far, Shell has preferred to retain the option to have advance sight of such information and be able to comment, as Shell has done several times, or decline to comment, which is the most frequent response. Knowing as I do, certain matters in the pipeline for publication in the coming weeks, now would not be a good time for Shell to give up this facility, but the decision is yours. Having had dealings with us for getting on to two decades, you know that we would not wish to be a nuisance to Shell.
Regards
John Donovan

I also supplied the Shell internal correspondence to some individuals with expertise in such matters.
FIRST RESPONSE
Hello John
Nice string of emails, lots of egg on the face of Shell.
I am certain they are all genuine.
The issue clearly is that there is no well defined owner of these assets. In my view this is criminal because in case of an emergency one needs action fast and if there is no owner they all will be waiting on each other. Very clear that this has slipped through the cracks. It is possible that WE (I assume Well Engineering) is still the owner since the wells have never produced (I assume?). But normally drilling hands over in a formal and documented way the ownership of the wells after these are completed.
It also is very clear that there is confusion as to the status of the wells. In short, you have just uncovered a great mess and Shell Europe should be very ashamed of itself not to have found this out themselves and rectified it the same day, now it is because some minions with their heart in the right place are taking some belated action. The head honchos obviously were too busy following Voser's decree to reduce staff, never mind the consequences….
This is going to be interesting. Perhaps you should ask how come there is no asset holder. How come this was not discovered in one of the great many audits on every topic one can think of. (Head office bureaucrats need to be kept busy after all). Clear example of 'me first, business later'. Sounds familiar?
If someone does not get sacked over this or severely reprimanded, it would show that Shell has lost its basic control mechanisms! But what do you expect with beancounters and HR people in charge of a technical business?
A concerned Shell retiree.
EXTRACTS FROM SECOND RESPONSEThe fact that people are expressing concern that there seems to be an implied shortcoming is in itself proof that there are some good people in Shell going above and beyond their allocated duties.
This is definitely another classic example of the quote from inside Shell: "95% of Shell staff are honest, ethical and extremely competent. Unfortunately the other 5% are in senior management positions"
I'm not saying that what has happened is completely kosher, but the names of the people expressing concern in the emails are not the villains – please don't shoot the messengers!
Bearing in mind the above plea, we have decided not to publish the emails but will be supplying them to a third party for investigation.
