Beyond Breastfeeding

Nestle's has been subject to an on-going boycott for their role in persuading
Third World women to give up breast feeding for the more "modern" use of
artificial infant formula. The practice is credited by the World Health
Organization with a million and a half deaths a year, largely due to the
exposure of babies to contaminated drinking water. Now Nestle's has found a
worthy free market solution solution. So simple for the owners of Perrier.
They will be marketing a bottled water called Pure Life to 20 Third World
nations. In addition, Nestle's has joined the environmental movement,
initiating a model educational effort in Lahore, Pakistan, where it has
encouraged a local ad agency to sponsor a series of "awareness seminars" on
the dangers of contaminated water. Keeping with its natural modesty, Nestle's
refrained from mentioning its role in funding the campaign. (WSJ 6/18/99)
