Greenpeace activists hold a banner during a demonstration outside the offices of U.S.-based Dow Chemicals in Bombay, September 2, 2002. The activists urged the Indian government to prosecute Dow Chemicals following its take-over of the U.S.-based Union Carbide which has an ongoing case over the 1984 gas leak disaster, caused by an Union Carbide pesticide plant in the central Indian city of Bhopal.
