STEALING WATER
Nestle is the biggest privatizer of water in the world, illegally buying public water at firesale cost and selling it back under pricegouging conditions. It markets water in bottles under hundreds of names including Perrier, Deer Park. The plastic bottles clog the landfills of the world adding to further deforestation. Countless marine mammals, birds, fishes have died because of plastic in the seas.

EMPLOYEE ABUSE

"In 1989 workers at a Nestlé chocolate plant in Cacapava, Brazil went on strike. The wprkers compained of poor working conditions, including discrimination against women, lack of protective clothing and inadequate safety condition. Within two months of the beginning of the stike the company had sacked forty of its workers, including most of the strike organisers." http://www.mcspotlight.org/beyond/companies/nestle.html

SUPPORTING BRUTAL REPRESSIVE REGIMES

"Nestlé has subsidiaries in Brazil, China, Colombia, Egypt, El Salvador, Guatemala, Indonesia, Kenya, Lebanon, Mexico, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Senegal, Sri Lanka and Turkey. The company also has subsidaries in South Africa which it owned during the Apartheid year. L'Oréal adds Peru and Morocco to the list". mcspotlight.org

NESTLE: ANIMAL SLAUGHER, ANIMAL SLAVERY, LIES IN MARKEtING ANIMAL FLESH, MILK STOLEN FROM MOTHER COWS, SUFFOCATED FISH

DAIRY COW SLAVERY AND SLAUGHTER

For at least 142 years, Nestle has been abusing dairy cows as it marketed milk chocolate.

American children are the fattest in he world because they eat mea and drink mllk. Cows' milk is stolen from calves who are butchered for veal as the milk intended for them goes to human children who drink a liquid designed to make a baby calf a 1000 lb animal in a year Calves are often separated from heir mothers by electroshocking rods.http://notmilk.com

PURINA

Nestle has lied about its Purina dog food, as it continues to murder some mammals, birds and fishes to feed toxic food to dogs and cats.

Animal flesh shortsns dog lives through cancer, heart disease, food poisoning, crippling arthritis, etc. Vegan dogs have longer life expectancy.
In promoting animal flesh, Nestle is causing animal agony to those made into pet food, animal diseases to those pets who eat the food, increased climate change through deforestation and other effects of ranching etc.

FRISKIE'S FISH AGONY, CAT DISEASE, PRICEGOUGING

Nestle is involved in the massive suffocation of fishes through marketing Friskies canned cat food. It is because of that implicit also in the murder of dolphins, seals, and other marine mammals caught in fishing nets.

In addition Nestle pricegouges with Friskies which causes blocked urethras and kidney problems for cats. Some Friskies fish is high in radiation, mercury neurotoxins like Corexit etc

RESEARCH ON ANIMALS
"Nestlé own nearly 50% of the cosmetics company L'Oreal. L'Oreal was subject to boycott calls from animal rights groups including PeTA because of its animal testing policy. Since then L'Oreal has claimed that it no longer tests finished products on animals. This statement is obviously intended to mislead since finished products do not require further testing and it implies that the ingredients are certainly still subject to tests. Some groups called off the boycott in response to L'Oreals' claims, however there are individuals and organisations who continue the boycott and L'Oreal continues to test on animals.
Nestléitself manufactures products containing meat and has been critised by BUAV for testing its coffee's carcinogenicity on mice.

LIBBY PRICEGOUGING
In many grocery stores, Nestle-owned Libby pumpkin is the only canned pumpkin, an example of Nestle monopolizing tactics.

In addition the can sells for almost $3. Pumpkins are extraordinarily prolific.
There have been 1500 lb. pumpkins grown.
Nestle is pricegouging in charging so much for what God gives for free.
