Business activity and the environment: The case of Guyana Sugar Corporation and thallium sulphate
Journal of Business Ethics · 1988 · Volume 7 · Issue 5
Abstract
Thallium Sulphate is one of the most lethal chemicals known. Its commercial use has been banned in the West and in many Third World countries. However, it recently came to light that the Guyana Sugar Corporation was importing large amounts of the substance and that this has led to acute and chronic poisoning of many Guyanese. This paper examines this case and discusses its ethical implications.
