Nestle CEO Pooh-Poohs Global Warming Fears (20 comments )
From Fortune.com

Nestle CEO Peter Brabeck-Letmathe claimed in Davos Friday that global warming is not really a problem. He didn't use those exact words, but he said as much in a number of amazingly iconoclastic comments he made on a panel at the World Economic Forum devoted to potential obstacles to global growth.

Later, I ran into Vinod Khosla, the longtime Silicon Valley venture capitalist now focusing on energy-related startups. I related Brabeck-Letmathe's onstage comments to him and asked what he thought. "You should tell him to see his proctologist so he can find his head," said Khosla, "and you can quote me."

1. They Also Promote (Promoted?) Child Slavery

despite the longest standing boycott and world outcry against it.
Here's a link from 2005. As of last summer, there were petitions
for Nestle to stop buying cocoa beans from farms using child
slaves. These kids are beaten, are worked to death, sleep in unhealthy
conditions, and live in fear.

I say we all boycott Nestle!

2. Dear Nestle:

This is the last straw.

I have been buying your crappy chocolate candy for decades, but I can no longer justify doing so. You don't give a rat's patootie about your fellow human beings or the future of life on earth.

My personal Nestle's boycott begins today.

Sincerely,
kestrel
