Nestle Free Week

This week, from July 2nd to July 8th, is Nestle Free Week. Our family boycotts Nestle because of their unethical business practices concerning their formula products. According to the Baby Milk Action website:

According to the World Health Organisation, 1.5 million infants die around the world every year because they are not breastfed. The World Health Assembly has adopted marketing requirements for baby foods to protect breastfeeding and to ensure breastmilk substitutes are used safely if necessary.
Nestlé is singled out for boycott action as monitoring shows it
to be responsible for more violations of the requirements than any other company. The boycott helps to stop some of the specific cases of malpractice we expose and has forced some changes in policy. But Nestlé continues systematic violations in those countries which have not yet brought in independently
monitored and enforced legislation implementing the marketing requirements, which is another part of our strategy for protecting infant health and mothers' rights.

So spread the word. Boycott Nestle, and help save babies.
