Corporations are the new governments and supermarkets are the new polling stations. Every product you buy is a vote for the company that produced it. Think carefully before buying mainstream brands like Nestle or Coca-Cola, the largest corporations are normally the most successful not because are they committed to making the world a better place to live, but because they are committed to making money no matter what the human and environmental cost.Question the bargains on offer... Why is it cheap? Who did they exploit in order they make it so cheaply? What are ingredients? Does it contain palm oil or GMOs? What corners are they cutting? Rethink the way you shop, dont just think about the price, think about who is suffering and who is benefiting from your purchase. Change your shopping list and help save the world!
