Fonterra Settles Greenpeace Claim Over Anchor Butter Labelling
A day after selling its consumer businesses, Fonterra has settled a civil claim, filed by Greenpeace, out of court.
The recent release of the ICCC’s recommendations on how to tackle climate change -- including taxing agriculture -- brought all that bias and ignorance bubbling to the surface.
Stuff, which last year abandoned rural publishing, showed its true colours with the pejorative intro, “Agriculture, the most polluting sector of the economy…”.
TV One basically turned its report into an attack ad for Greenpeace, going off on a tangent that led to the “evils” of PKE, complete with images of destroyed rainforest and sad orangutans. The link with the ICCC report was tenuous at best.
And our old mate Jack Tame couldn’t suppress his disappointment, lecturing Minister James Shaw about going too easy on farmers.
