Wow I just had a thought. Imagine if the WTO had been around when countries started banning the sale of Tetraethyllead. The TEL industry fought very hard against such action first by attacking the science, then fighting in courts and political arenas. Imagine if they had access to a super-national court explicitly created as a way for large corporations to punish governments for creating laws that are bad for their business?
