RAINFOREST ACTION NETWORK : Tell MONDELEZ's CEO, Dirk VAN DE PUT, to stop being … a Dirk.

 

Friend, Right now, the CEO of Mondelēz is meeting with Wall Street investors at a private event in Florida, reassuring them that the company is doing everything it can to increase shareholder value. But what the CEO — Dirk Van de Put — isn’t mentioning is that Mondelēz’s drive to enrich its shareholders comes at a real cost to the rest of us: higher prices that squeeze consumers, human rights violations, and rainforest destruction across its global supply chains. So we’re on the ground in Orlando, Florida, to paint a less rosy picture for Mondelēz’s investors, and we could use your help getting our message out. Help us! Our plan is to confront Dirk directly — to tell him to “stop being a Dirk.” We want to make sure Dirk — and every stock market analyst, bigwig investor, and business tycoon at the conference — understands that Mondelēz’s shareholder strategy isn’t just about infinite Oreo flavors and celebrity collabs. It’s also about fueling human rights violations and deforestation all over the world to make a quick buck. Will you help us make sure they hear us? Here’s how you can help: While we pressure Dirk in front of his colleagues and industry friends, you can literally do the same thing. This event presents us with the rare opportunity to put the costs of Mondelēz’s business model directly in front of the people in power — while they’re glued to their phones. Take Action! Thank you for helping us speak truth to power! In solidarity, Maggie Martin Senior Forest Campaigner Rainforest Action Network
