Larry,
Warren Buffett is investing in a massive steel company that's planning to force 22,0000 Indian villagers from their homes.
Now, eight of the UN's top human rights officials have called for an
immediate halt to the project -- and we need to make sure Buffett acts.
If
this project goes ahead, thousands of acres of forest will be flattened,
and tens of thousands of poor Indian villagers will lose their homes
and livelihoods. The company behind this disaster is Posco Steel, a
South Korean giant, in which Warren Buffett has invested more than $1
billion.
If Buffett uses his financial might, he can push Posco Steel to address the UN's human rights concerns or stop the project. He claims to uphold the "highest levels" of business ethics -- but still hasn't spoken out.
