Ep 65 - Engineering Disasters Part 2: Tragedy in Bhopal
This week, Farz takes us to 1980s Bhopal, India, where thousands of people were poisoned by the air outside of a Union Carbide pesticide plant. It's just what you think might happen. The buck was passed over and over again, but essentially, water got into a gas tank, and the tank leaked; clouds of poison chased people and animals around the town leaving many dead and many more hurt for life. If you google it you will see some really terrible images that we didn't include. That's on you.
