Chevron wins $38m from Environmentalists behaving badly: extortion, fraud, witness tampering, corrupt practices
Score 1 for Chevron

In 2011, environmentalists won the worlds largest judgement against Chevron (holy moley $18 billion), but it turned out it was all based on fraud, fake witnesses and telling lies. Who would think people who say they like trees and human rights would be so self serving? The award has since been overturned — indeed the tables have turned, and last week Chevron was awarded $38 million in damages.

Strangely, bad behaviour of planet-saving-people doesn’t appear to rate highly in the news. Hands up who thinks the BBC/ABC/CBC would fail to mention it if environmentalists won a $38m suit against a money-laundering-witness-tampering oil company?

This has been going on since the early 90s as the Ecuadoreans have attempted a shakedown attempt of Texaco, now Chevron.

The entire lawsuit has been one massive fraud from the getgo.

Some of the best ROI the KGB got was on the money they shelled out to fledgling environmental groups during the Cold War. It's still paying off, damaging Western industry better than they could have dreamed in the early '70s.
