Bayer, bees & the Hall of Shame

This may be the only time you see PAN nominate a pesticide manufacturer for an award.

Every year, our friends at Corporate Accountability International (CAI) highlight the year’s worst corporate actors in their Corporate Hall of Shame [ https://www.stopcorporateabuse.org/camp ... hall-shame ]. The Hall of Shame helps hold corporations accountable for the most egregious examples of corporate abuse. This year, we’re partnering with CAI to nominate a particularly bad actor in our food and farming system: Bayer CropScience.

Here at PAN, we’re committed to shining a light on the misdeeds of the Big 6 — the world’s largest pesticide companies. Bayer is one of them [ http://www.panna.org/issues/pesticides- ... cal-cartel ] . In addition to aspirin, the German-based corporation manufactures bee-harming neonicotinoids and is a long-time peddler of hazardous pesticides.
