One of Chevron’s many underhanded schemes to attempt to escape accountability for deliberately dumping more than 60 billion gallons of toxic oil waste into the Ecuadorian Amazon over the course of decades has been the use of the pro-corporate Investor-State Dispute Settlement System (ISDS).

Like many of Chevron's efforts, this undemocratic and unethical process excludes the affected communities and allows three paid arbiters to ignore the Ecuadorian judicial system and issue summary awards in the favor of corporations. The system itself has become infamous for advancing corporate interests over human rights worldwide.

The ISDS is a direct threat to human rights, corporate accountability, and climate justice.
