TI  - To finish with the denial of the consequences of impossible accidents 
AU  - Claude Pichot 
AB  - The paradigm of most of today’s industrial business models seems to be the utter denial of the possibility of
accidents occurring in industry and of their catastrophic consequences. The very short-term business vision of these
models, concerned only with an economy which relies on stock prices, does not correlate with the reality of industrial
plants which degrade before our very eyes according to the laws of physics. There is a distinct theoretical incompatibility
between our current drive for short-term profit and the need for long-term solutions to avoid these kinds of accidents and
disasters. How long will we continue to make excuses for the economic and social consequences that our technological choices and their resulting products have on us? We would save our planet if only we were able to replace this dogma of denial with a greater consideration for the mitigation of industrial accidents.
