I rendered a wall street financier is one of the worlds richest man. His foundry had poisoned the small town of herculaneum missouri. He is now poisoning another city in peru. The communities come together to defend themselves. Back in about 2001 i was taking a bus from one guy youll up in the Central Highlands of peru down to the Coast Capital city where my family and i lived. Before you get to the city you start to smell the city. You smell stink you smell led you see the vegetation begins to get out. And much of the rock is coated with white gravy it almost looks like calcium deposits. And we stopped the bus and i got off to stretch my legs we were taking a break there in la toyia for about 10 minutes and there were a couple kids who were walking down the street with their mother they were hacking their lungs out they were coughing really really bad. As we went to the side of the smelter the smoke stack is. Emitting tons of pollution what you see is the passive contamination of whats leaking out of the holes of the smelter. Theres no filter on that theres no chimney to get it up and out of the valley. Emilia you know who you know you know the. Polio or really mean. We dont know this one now and im only receive. If i think youre going to be sure to say he. Was that. He said yeah larry. Was noisy.

The company agreed to meet the new Environmental Standards but instead of investing in the site i were rendered committed tax evasion and sent the money to 2. 00 subsidiaries one in missouri and the other in the cayman islands. The city of. Which south americans call the chernobyl of the indies is ever more polluted. Presbyterian church became more and more aware of the inner connections between. The us economy and. Emerging economies around the world particularly around the issue of Extractive Industries and we asked the question what if there was a connection nexus connecting folks in missouri with folks in peru. Hunter Feral Mission director for the press. Material church in peru learned from pastor eleanors talk of st louis that another equally polluting dover one plant was located in herculaneum missouri. This 3 also belong to franco. The pastor decided to go there with peruvian archbishop federal grant oh. Links are formed between the peruvian and american communities. Pastor eleanor stock had organized a meeting she invited some Environmental Health specialists from St Louis University fred mandel struggle and 2 representatives from the lawyer community. We had a conversation had a meal together and talked for a couple of hours really just sharing experiences around the circle and as each person spoke every testimony that was given from people in her kill any of the folks allowed or you would say thats the same situation were facing the same situation in our city. And the stories were the same same things that were happening same relationship with the company same kind of intimidation and threats same kind of denying there was an issue of same Health Issues in both places and. The mobilization began to bear fruit.

They threaten with violence those like rosa morrow who fight to alert the community about heavy metal contamination. Rinko then threatened to close the factory. Up in the ng. There are a lot and there were a lot of mostly by the. Dea and also because of the. Continual parade to proving the government was continually assaulted by the threats of the door run company which said 4000. 00 jobs will be gone tomorrow local folks desperately needed the jobs so it became a significant issue and every time there was a threat or the rumor moved through saying that the Company Might be closed or the approving government was going to be forcing the closure of the company folks would hit the streets.

Me old yet to see pal it was just a constant battle and indeed trying to close the trail. When something you find themselves falls apart we choose to look for common ground. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this sparing Dramatic Development the only really im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very clear to kill or die time to sit down and talk.

Only. 97 percent of the children had left the halls. Some as high as 30. 40 micrograms per deciliter which would be crucial children in such positions in the us will be hospitalized here in the us. There are some significant cognitive disability theres some significant motor skill coordination issues children a lot would be losing between 1. 00 and 3. 00 i. Q. Points for every year that they lived in the city. That hes it will be a moped one of these uli youve got. Almost. 3 but he says that lee. Noise. Is a little bit of a little. Useful eager to get him through the u. S. Does. He immediately really is that if youre the guy that you know were going. In 2009 because of the lack of investment by ranko in Environmental Standards at the site and due to Health Issues this state ordered its closure just what iran it was hoping for. Isnt indirect expropriation the domain of International Arbitration. I rendered attacked the peruvian state and the trial took place in washington without the people of. That being the case please let us invite mr hamilton to begin his oral submissions thank you. For still not to release as one of. Those he goes. Its one of. The us process yglesias. Us by the ways mud that hes going impress us either about how glorious. Economical as youll. See the treaty allows an investor to bring a claim against the state either on the claimants own behalf. For its own injuries for state conduct or it may bring a claim on behalf of an enterprise that it owns and controls for loss or damage that the enterprise has suffered free trade treaties have this clause the state investor clause which allow Companies Corporations to. Local community is government groups states nations if they feel that their profits are being undermined in any way past present or future profits. That means if local communities that are being poisoned if they object if they do anything that the company feels is interrupting their profits. They can be sued the local folks in peru have real fears a lot of doubts about the arbitration system feeling that its almost like its described as a faceless jury no one knows theyre not accountable to us we dont know who they are we dont know who got them into those positions of arbitration it put the Decision Making it took it away from local community and people who would live through. Reap the consequences of those decisions and put it in the hands of people whom we dont even know. To give a voice to the community of. The regional archbishop. Obtained a public hearing at the Foreign Affairs committee of the us congress. Marrow and the st louis researcher for nando serrano were called to testify in july 2012 and we have sound Scientific Evidence of the grave threat to the people of the environment as is the studies have shown. Great concern again is the multiple exposure all of these toxic metals affecting the body and the effects. So a discussion of the economic and legal in other factors related to the relationship between the United States government and peru in different work of the u. S. Trade for you agreement i believe i believe we must put an emphasis is we must make a priority of the hill needs to rights of the people of illinois especially the children and especially the born we have children being born with lead in their bodies and that is something that we can see they are completely unacceptable like you know as miss america she would. Noisily akiko im only there to politico. They can equal explode at them and then go to their then either load or yes eco mad at a political bet up on me because minorities wait to see his last couple yeah. After hope you know that i mean. Iraq i mean thats how well then what at the. End of yet no you havent either but yes opportunity that is but i have this benteke if this were like one time enough and completely home it then would be better then but as i move. E. O. Auda do you know this much at this is him on that list though. But i won one of my concerns with each of the Free Trade Agreements going back to nafta with mexico which i did vote against primarily because of workers rights and because of environmental protections while on paper it looked to be very strong and robust and im wondering if the gores to the peruvian Free Trade Agreement is very similar week this with regards to Environmental Standards and are we doing our part as a government to push on that that important area. Help spicey to his lawyers over 1000 children from now is filed a lawsuit against iran or in a local court in missouri which had ordered him to compensate the people of herculaneum in 2010. To avoid this lawsuit. Attacked peru before the International Arbitration tribunals. Promptly after filing the notice of intent in december of 2010 rinko ran directly to the court of the United States. In an effort to remove. Claims brought by children. From state court to federal court theyd go did that by bringing to the attention of the United States federal court the existence of a treaty dispute that case played out over a period of years and in 2016 the International Tribunal found that renta oh had failed to comply with that obligation under the treaty to waive local proceedings its a very specific requirement the interpretation of that required. Meant was agreed upon by peru and the United States and the tribunals found that there was a violation of that treaty requirement. The claim and go to the arbitration wrinkle was refused because of every sounds but sure wrinkle can again wreak labor resealed the peruvian government so that is why we do need to act with a lot of careful to avoid the risk of the regular gigs we the brew we have will remain. A symbolic victory for the peruvian state which although not condemned is still required to pay between 4. 00 to 8000000. 00 of legal costs. And while the people of herculaneum were compensated those of lower roya have received nothing and continued to breathe polluted air. My greatest hope is that people particularly United States will recognize the cost of a wax legal system that allows corporate polluters to. Literally get away with murder. At some point weve got to recognize the fact that while investors have rights. No one has the right to take away the intelligence of any child and no one has the right to contribute to boys and children in a commander. In europe the well those formidable action has raised awareness. European institutions are starting to act. In march 2018 the European Court of justice invalidated a fine of 22000000 euros against slovakia imposed by. An Arbitration Court judging the sentence incompatible with european law. This could serve as jurisprudence for conflicts within europe. In making this decision the European Court of justice seems to want to reaffirm its sovereignty and jurisdiction. The European Commission is also preparing a project for a Public International and Permanent Court to replace private arbitration. But we must be realistic multinationals will never relinquish the exorbitant power granted by arbitration tribunals they can count on the worlds top lawyers to defend them and remind them of past Free Trade Agreements signed by states. All the more reason for Civil Society to remain vigilant and continue to demonstrate and resist so that states dont give in to the lobbyists of multinationals. Are and to defend the freedom of states to legislate. To preserve health and the environment all over the world. And to defend the interests of the people rather than the major private corporate interests. Is your media a reflection of reality. In a world transformed. What will make you feel safe.
