@jaz the same Nestle who's ex CEO once said that declaring water a public right was 'extreme'?
@gomez “Water is, of course, the most important raw material we have today in the world. It’s a question of whether we should privatize the normal water supply for the population. And there are two different opinions on the matter. The one opinion, which I think is extreme, is represented by the NGOs, who bang on about declaring water a public right. That means that as a human being you should have a right to water. That’s an extreme solution.” -- Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, Nestlé CEO 1997-2008
@jaz yep that's the quote I was thinking of. Add in the issues of formula baby milk in Africa, green washing, forced labour, deforestation, price fixing, melamine in Chinese baby milk etc and they don't come across as a very nice organisation.
