I'm not an advocate of big government or pointless bureaucracy, but time and time again, companies around the world have demonstrated that they cannot govern themselves when it comes to environmental safety and preservation.
The latest example comes from a story in The New York Times, which provides details on a horrific toxic waste disaster in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
Six-month-old Salam Oudrawogol of Abidjan, Ivory Coast, has been covered with sores since he was exposed to toxic waste in August.
Globalism is inevitable and, I believe, has the potential to improve the lives of the planet's residents, but that will not happen without improved oversight and governance of corporations and individuals across international boundaries. The profit motive is a valid one, but it cannot come at the expense of social responsibility.
That is so wrong! Get the kid out of there!

:-(

u think they care about Africans they don´t give a damm about our well being. Just take a look at that little boy....damm it..
This is just one face of millions. We can feel sad all we want. But it needs to be action other than just words. What can we do as people to help one another in time of adversity. We can wined or take action. No one knows the outcome but the creator.
Love the lord with all your heart and soul. He will provide what is needed to those who not have. This even mean in poor health. In the mouth of babes come the word of God. This child is not suffering to the way we think, but is happy with the life and chance to live.
Just pray everyone pray for the understanding of man, and our world leaders, for they will be judge for what they govern.
.
please stop complaining and do something. action speaks more than word.
how is this child doing now, i hope he,s been treated by now.
it is good that while exposing such things to the world the contact address should be included so that the willings and capable could help directly.
poor kid , it really hurt to see this.
