CSE action plan to clean UCIL site at Bhopal in five years
Three decades after it was shut down, the Union Carbide factory in Bhopal continues to be a real danger to the people of Bhopal. Almost every study done to measure the impact of the waste dumped within and outside the site by UCIL has come up with one conclusion there is large-scale contamination in the soil and water of the area where the factory is located. In the first initiative of its kind, Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has analysed all the studies and their conclusions. CSE released the key findings of its analysis at a media briefing. It also released a comprehensive action plan for ridding the site of this contamination.
