NOW THAT IT’S EASIER THAN EVER FOR CONSUMERS TO GET AT THE TRUTH…

Chipotle became the first fast‐food chain to tag GMOs and has now banned them entirely
Coca‐Cola opened its doors in Brazil to counter rumors of dead rats in its bottles

BUSINESSES ARE NOW REGARDED AS MEMBERS OF THE SOCIAL COMMUNITY—AND ARE EXPECTED TO BEHAVE AS SUCH
Companies have an ethical obligation to operate in a way that does not harm the environment
Companies have a responsibility to do more than just generate profit

AND THAT’S ADDED QUITE A LOT TO THE MODERN CORP’S “TO DO” LIST
