From Nestlé Waters North America: The Shape of Citizenship

What you've been awaiting: Nestlé Waters North America has released its 2008 corporate citizenship report, The Shape of Citizenship.

I know - some of you out there are either vomiting or getting yourself scraped off the ceiling, or both.

Here's the blurb on its WWW site:

This year, Nestlé Waters North America launched our first Corporate Citizenship Report: The Shape of Citizenship.  It describes the social or environmental challenges facing our company, and the steps we have taken to address those issues.  Additionally, it features the goals we have set to improve our future performance and further our corporate citizenship commitment.

And yes, Nestlé Waters North America does have a partnership with The Nature Conservancy, going on ten years (see page 41).

No, I'm not going to provide a review. You all can do that yourselves.

Remember - if we didn't drink so much bottled water many of you would not have to fighting Nestlé's activities in USA towns and villages. 

No one forces us to buy bottled water.

"Clean water is not an expenditure of Federal funds; clean water is an investment in the future of our country. " -- former Rep. Bud Shuster (R-PA), Washington Post, 9 January 1987

An amazingly complex issue....and getting more 'clouded' as time goes on.
