  Dow wants to stop industrial water pollution? Why not start with the 8,000+ metric tonnes of toxic waste @DowChemical left in Bhopal? #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster
• https://twitter.com/DowChemical/status/1058028391381786630
  Dow believes we should all be treated fairly and equally under the law? Everyone but Bhopal gas disaster survivors, including LGBTQI+ survivors. @DowChemical has refused to appear in an Indian court on ongoing charges. #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster

  Dow believes in sustainable waste management? Except in Bhopal, where @DowChemical toxics pollute soil and groundwater – toxics which have now spread to 42 different communities. #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster
• https://twitter.com/DowCorps/status/1057351676829556738
  Dow believes in fighting food insecurity? How about the thousands who lost their working abilities due to the injuries and illnesses sustained in the Bhopal gas disaster? Oops! We forgot. @DowChemical ethics don’t quite reach Bhopal. #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster

  Dow “pulling their weight” to ensure clean waterways? Except in Bhopal, where the groundwater is contaminated with heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants courtesy of @DowChemical. #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster
• https://twitter.com/DowChemical/status/1051883343422341121
  Dow’s concerned about preventing disease? How about the 150,000 survivors of the Bhopal gas disaster with cancers, and chronic neurological, reproductive, gynecological, respiratory, ocular, and neuromuscular illnesses? Could have been prevented, @DowChemical. #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster
• https://twitter.com/DowChemical/status/1050375434758582272
  Dow collected 40,000 pounds of trash but left 8,000+ metric tonnes of toxic waste in Bhopal! #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster

  Dow brought science to life for students in Bhopal too. What do you get when you mix untested technology, corporate negligence, and deadly toxics, @DowChemical? #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster
• https://twitter.com/habitatindia/status/1046738441478828032
  Dow believes we all deserve a decent place to live. Is that why @DowChemical puts their toxic facilities in and around racialized, Indigenous, and poor communities? #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster
• https://twitter.com/KarenS_Carter/status/1045063645892431873
  Dow believes people with disabilities should be included and empowered. Except when @DowChemical’sf toxics cause developmental disabilities through multiple generations, as in Bhopal. In that case, Dow believes more in exclusion and silencing. #DowHypocrisy #BhopalGasDisaster

We also encourage you to post your own thoughts and ideas. The above are examples. For Twitter, please ensure that you do not start your tweet with @DowChemical, as then it gets sent directly to them. We want the world to see these tweets, not just Dow.

Thank you!
