Wherever they work, ChevronTexaco has continued to place executive salaries and corporate profits over the health and safety of the community and workers.
They have destroyed environment and contaminated local people with their toxic wastes in Richmond (California, USA), in Ecuadorian Amazone, in Nigeria, in Indonesia, and in the U.K.
Supporting brutal / repressive regimes: Chevron has no moral thoughts to work with dictatorial regimes in Burma, Haiti, and Nigeria.
