Toxic Colonialism : ウィキペディア英語版 | Toxic Colonialism
Toxic colonialism, or toxic waste colonialism, refers to the practice of exporting hazardous waste from developed countries to underdeveloped ones for disposal.〔 ==Background== In 1992, 'toxic colonialism' was "a striking phrase coined by Jim Puckett of Greenpeace for the dumping of the industrial wastes of the West on territories of the Third World"〔 The term refers to practices of developed nations who rid themselves of toxic or hazardous waste by shipping it to less developed areas of the world. The affected communities typically lack the resources, knowledge, political organization, or capital to resist the practice.〔 In the US, the term may also be applied to exploitation of native American reservations, where differing environment regulations allow the land to be more easily used for dump sites.
