What can be done to revive the Bhopal branch?

I think that this is a fairly interesting question.  On
one hand, I think that a full admission and public acceptance of responsibility and
mishandling of the public trust has to be made by Union Carbide/ Dow Chemicals.  To a
great extent, victims of the disaster still feel abused and poisoned by the lack of
corporate responsibility.  So many suffer with so little having been given as
compensation.  In order to move forward and potentially revive the Bhopal branch,
something in way of accepting the past and helping to do right by it has to be
done.

In terms of moving from this point, I think that
cleaning up the toxic waste that still lingers in the plant's areas more then two
decades after the disaster is needed.  While the corporations might have left the area,
people still live there and ingest the water and breathe the air that is being polluted
with remnants of toxic chemicals and remains of toxic gas.  A full and unmitigated clean
up is required.  Levels of Mercury and other forms of poisoning are still present. 
Children use the site as a playground.  It might do well for the plant's acceptance by
the community if the company that takes over makes a special attempt to generate social
services for the community members, a people that were literally wiped out and tormented
by corporate negligence.  Once these steps are taken, I think that it might be wise for
the corporation who takes over the plant to hire local people, the same people who were
victimized by it two decades earlier.  Working with the community as well as outside
agencies and activists regarding the latest technology in safety demands and ensuring
that what is produced by the plant is environmentally sound and that which benefits the
local community are all steps in which there can be a reviving of the Bhopal plant. 
These are steps that the Dow Chemical/ Union Carbide people have not even begun to take,
and in doing so, some type of reviving and doing right can be
done.
