The Indonesian arm of Newmont Mining Corp and its top US executive there are accused of polluting an area near to a mine in the North Sulawesi province. They claim the allegations, which they deny, are disproved by a "substantial body of scientific evidence". Richard Ness faces a maximum ten-year jail sentence if convicted. Rare case Newmont has faced accusations of pollution before, but never accompanied by criminal charges. It is also a rare example of the Indonesian government taking a foreign company to court. Newmont Mining's Indonesian arm, Newmont Minahasa Raya, and Mr Ness - the local firm's president director - are accused of knowingly dumping waste on an island in the province, about 1,300 miles north east of Jakarta. The Indonesian authorities claim local residents have suffered serious skin diseases and neurological disorders after being exposed to abnormally high levels of toxic metals including mercury and arsenic.

Extractions: The Department of the Planet Earth was organized in 1991 by citizens from the United States and Canada, concerned about the rapid decline of global environment, global pollution of ecosystems, health injuries from toxins, and lifestyles and economies like that of the United States and Canada featuring such waste that they challenge Earth's future. There has been a proposal to convert the US Environmental Protection Agency into a Cabinet office or Department of the Environment . This effort failed, as well as an effort to write pollution prevention into the charter of the new agency. And so, the concept of a Department of the Planet Earth is still unrealized.
