Nestle Corp- Breaking the Law, Murders and Animal Testing

   URGENT CONSUMER NOTICE

Nestle, a company that has been in business since 1905 is at the forefront of animal lovers around the globe. In a recent report published by The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, states that Nestle has been performing unneeded and non-required testing on mice for their green tea products.

The mice are forced fed a concentrate of green tea, then placed in a pitch black cage. They are then shocked and eventually killed. In another useless test mice were purposely restricted to cause muscle degeneration. The experimenters then cut their legs open and decapitated them!

We are speaking of tiny mice, innocent and kind creatures being tortured for tea. Unfortunately, these are not the only test subjects that are being viciously tested on; Nestle also tests on dogs, rabbits, rats, guinea pigs, cats etc. Nestle currently holds the worse possible ECRA rating for their animal testing policy, lowered significantly upon the merger with L'Oreal. They have been the focus of national boycotts for their baby milk products. They are responsible for habitat destruction in Brazil's rain-forest, and have been a target for human rights, child trafficking and sweatshops. Then there are the human murders of Nestle workers, union leaders etc.; you can draw your own conclusions see Nestle Murders.


So why is Nestle getting away with all of this? Money, they have their hands deeply embedded in the pockets of politicians and world leaders. The only way that these atrocities will stop is by drastically slowing down the demand for their products. A Boycott is the only way to hurt a massive corporation like Nestle.
There are plenty of other products sold that are cruelty free see a list here: Leaping Bunny, Cruelty Free List. For detergents Huish products now Sun Products Corp the makers of , all®, Wisk®, Surf®, Sun®, Snuggle® and Sunlight® are not tested on animals.
