This sounds really awful. That's a number of references and a lot of footage, as well... sounds like it's probably true. I'll have to think about it.
Wow .. thats pretty unreal. i cant believe that even killing goes on, what i want to know if its people that are native to their country that are running these factories or Americans..
i still think coke is better than pepsi
tastes better than pepsi.
my friend spent her summer in Columbia learning about the injustices and violence, threats, etc. going on down there, that's where I learned about this and yeah, if you wanna read more about what she has to see check this out:

that's insane.
are there any big corporations these days that aren't treating people in 'third world' countries like they are subhuman?
it's discouraging.
thats friggen ridiculous.. like i had no idea... im not to sure if its gona harbour my drinkin of coke or not tho..
I've read about the water issue before in a few different places but I think people should be very careful about throwing murder allegations around. Either way the whole water thing is absurd enough to boycott them. That's it. I'm in for another year without pop.
Boycotting is so in for 2007
But they taught the world to sing... in perfect harmony.
Well I am glad I don't drink coke, although Rebekah's got a point about all huge corporations. Nonetheless it would be totally much better for us all to start making an effort to start eating/consumerizing products made and grown locally for many reasons. Cheryl, enlighten us about why please (I forget all the reasons)
oh. I guess she doesn't care anymore. That's the only logical explanation for why it's been almost a week and she hasn't written anything. (there's no WAY it has anything to do with being busy this time of year!)
I don't think it would be very easy to buy and only things locally. But to a less extreme, organic products are generally less harmful on people from other countries. For example, organic banana's are grown without using chemicals to aid their growth. Non-organic bananas are grown using chemicals which are harmful to the poor workers who may not be able to afford gloves when working at banana farms, as well as for villages close to banana farms who have chemicals blown (or run through the water) into their area. And I'm sure everyone is aware of fair trade stuff, and how that's good for people.
the free press did a series about buying only local groceries - it requires some work and some sacrifice, but it can be done. that was an interesting bunch of articles - i think she went for a month with only local.
soo...no coffee.
