The Top 100 Air Polluters

Mike Ludwig, Truthout: "General Electric, Koch Industries, Bayer, Dow Chemical and ExxonMobil ... all rank in the top ten of the Toxic 100, a list of the top 100 corporations that produce the most toxic air pollution and put human health at risk. The list, recently released by economists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, tracks toxic chemicals emitted into the air by top polluters and ranks the companies based on the toxicity of the pollution and other factors, such as smokestack size, prevailing winds and the number of people exposed to the pollution."
