Chevron Advertisement Criticizes Goldman Ecuadorian Award Winners
Business Wire, April 15, 2008
Says They Deceived Public, Press and Goldman Family
SAN FRANCISCO -- A Chevron Corporation full page advertisement in The San Francisco Chronicle today highlights the company's objections to an award given to two Ecuadorians in the city this week. The company says Pablo Fajardo and Luis Yanza, who were recognized last night at the Goldman Environmental awards, are deceiving the Goldman Foundation, the public and the media about oil pollution in Ecuador's rainforest. The Chevron advertisement says Fajardo acknowledges that the source of oil pollution in Ecuador is the country's state-owned oil company, PetroEcuador, which has admitted it has a poor track record for spills, according to Kent Robertson of Chevron. Robertson also said Fajardo has also worked to prevent PetroEcuador from cleaning up its polluted sites.
