New Zealands Vietnam

Here in New Plymouth New Zealand the home of the Dow Chemical Plant that manufactured the ingredients that made Agent Orange for export. Have the same problems as the US from their past Dow chemical plants products linked to a higher multiple cancers, birth defects and other conditions. Not only did New Plymouth Dow Chemical Plant make defoliants tons and tons of which was in the from of pesticides DDT and 666 or BHC (mixed isomers) herbicides 2,4.D and 2,4,5-T sprayed all over New Zealand clean green country side to kill things like grass grub in the 50s 60s and 70s. The plant also washed its chemical by products out though storm waters onto local beaches and through the cities sewers out to sea They also burnt their chemical by products out into the atmosphere over the city as well as burring it in local public and private dumps around the New Plymouth and Taranaki region. Because of this New Plymouth as well as the rest of New Zealand has some of the highest death rates per population in the world from chemical related cancers.
Yet as in the US the New Zealand authorises and Dow have for years denied this ever happened and still today try to hide or wash over the facts that are put in front of them.
