Coca Cola, Heinz And Other Major Food Companies Warn Climate Change Threatens Business

While politicians continue to bicker over whether or not climate change exists, companies now have no choice in the matter — they must acknowledge the science and the risk and disclose the reality of that risk to their investors’ pocketbooks. Whether that risk actually manifests itself is another matter, but the fact that companies are increasingly putting climate change on their threat lists speaks volumes to the severity of the problem.

Isn’t it nice, these big multinational companies are worried about their profits… the risk to their investor’s pocketbooks.

Bugger you and your health, this isn’t an issue for them.

I don’t care one iota about their investor’s pocketbooks, they can all go broke as far as I am concerned. These companies are pure greed at our expense.

Did we listen 20 years ago?

The girl who silenced the world for 5 minutes

No!

Will there be a similar message at Rio +20?

The reason… because it would show that future generations, our children, are not really on the agenda! It would show that in 20 years we have done nothing!

Severn Suzuki’s plea is as poignant today as it ever was, more so; because since her speech more animals have become extinct, more money has been wasted on wars, more pollution has choked our waterways, more consumers have increased their consumption.

No, we didn’t listen then.

And the biggest offenders aren’t interested in listening now.

The only green agenda item that is being considered…

is MONEY!
