Abstract
Recent events at Bhopal and Sandoz have raised a new concern over chemical accidents and the handling of toxic wastes. In a comparative framework, this paper analyses American and European experiences in the legislative arena and in dealing with substantial chemical accidents. The costs and actions of both firms and governments in response to, and clean-up of, these accidents are noted. Finally, specific actions for governments and multinational firms are addressed to lessen both the toxic waste and toxic accident problem.
