Dissemination of the hoaxes and misinformation can exacerbate the consequences ofindustrial accidents with disastrous consequences for the environment. There arewarning examples from the past that the intentional misinformation may cause fatalconsequences. Three major industrial incidents introduced proofs the importance of thecorrect and true information. It demonstrates the sensitivity of any event on thecorrectness of information sources especially at the beginning of the accident in thecritical time for the people and environment under threat. Delayed information aboutdioxin leakage in Seveso with long-term consequences in form of the massive healthinjuries and genetic complications of future generation born after the disaster wassimilar to the situation in Bhopal, where no warning together with misinformation andlater hoax produced by the factory manager caused thousands of fatalities. Later,Chernobyl nuclear disaster also related to the lack of valid information, delayedevacuation, injuries and fatalities that should not occur in case of true and correctinformation.
