The document summarizes the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy in India. A leak of methyl isocyanate gas and other chemicals from a Union Carbide pesticide plant in Bhopal exposed over 500,000 people, resulting in thousands of deaths immediately and many more in subsequent years from illnesses. Factors that led to the accident included poor safety practices at the plant, dangerous chemicals being stored in large quantities, and disabled safety systems. The incident caused immense suffering and violated basic human rights. Analyzing it through different ethical frameworks like utilitarianism and Kantian ethics indicates the actions surrounding the tragedy were morally unacceptable.
