Last News: Greenpeace and Nestle corporation confrontation

There's a battle going on between Nestlé, the makers of Kit Kat, and Greenpeace, over a video that Greenpeace has created to admonish Nestlé for its use of palm oil in its candy bars.



Greenpeace alleges that Nestlé had a video pulled from YouTube. It's still available on Vimeo here (if it's pulled from Vimeo, the link will stop working). On its Web site, Greenpeace discusses the problem with Nestlé's use of palm oil: "Nestlé, maker of Kit Kat, uses palm oil from companies that are trashing Indonesian rain forests, threatening the livelihoods of local people and pushing orangutans towards extinction. We all deserve to have a break--but having one shouldn't involve taking a bite out of Indonesia's precious rain forests. We're asking Nestlé to give rain forests and orangutans a break and stop buying palm oil from destroyed forests."
