The charity Oxfam is hailing a victory for consumer power after food and beverage behemoth PepsiCo committed to stop land grabbing in its supply chain.
The firm owns many brands such as Walkers and Doritos, which along with its fizzy drink stalwarts, require copious amounts of sugar, palm oil and soy – the three commodities at the heart of the global land rush.
The New Internationalist is an independent bi-monthly not-for-profit magazine that reports on action for global justice. We believe in putting people before profit, in climate justice, tax justice, equality, social responsibility and human rights for all.
New Internationalist acknowledges the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognises their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We acknowledge that these lands were stolen and sovereignty was never ceded. We pay our respects to Elders both past and present.
