Corporate Hall of Shame: Past Victories

 

Chevron – 2010 – The year's runner-up, Chevron, was nominated for dumping more than 18.5 billion gallons of highly toxic chemicals into the Ecuadoran Amazon. In February 2010, an Ecuadorean court ordered Chevron to pay over $8 billion for clean-up after years of campaigning by Corporate Accountability International ally the Rainforest Action Network. The oil-giant will remain in the Corporate Hall of Shame until it fulfils the court order.

Columbia/HCA – 1998– Inducted for taking over nonprofit and community-owned hospitals, dumping patients without insurance and using its political clout to get away with these abuses. By 2000, Corporate Accountability International supporters and allies forced the corporation to alter policies and practices that had once put profits ahead of patient care.

Kimberly-Clark – 2009 – Kimberly-Clark (the world's largest tissue-product manufacturers) was first nominated for fueling large-scale deforestation. Kimberly- Clark was removed from the 2009 ballot after Corporate Accountability International ally Greenpeace announced a historic agreement ensuring greater protection and sustainable management of Canada's boreal forest and other ancient forests around the world.

 

Waste Management – 1996 – Inducted for manipulating public policy at the expense of the environment and people's health. Since then, the corporation reduced its influence over public policy – cutting its D.C. lobbyist team from 34 to six by 2005 – the year Waste Management was removed from the Corporate Hall of Shame.

The Corporate Hall of Shame partners with allied organizations to mobilize grassroots momentum and turn up the heat on corporations who corrupt the political process and abuse human rights and the environment. The Corporate Hall of Shame is a project of Corporate Accountability International.
