The “Big 10” companies that control the world

What we eat and consume

The confederation of NGOs, Oxfam International made a nice infographic showing the 10 companies that control what consumers buy and eat around the world.

The 10 largest food and beverage companies are Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, Unilever, Danone, Mars, Mondelez International, Kellogg’s, General Mills, Nestle and Associated British Foods.

According to businessinsider, Oxfam’s campaign seeks to make the Big 10 more environmentally friendly and is intended to strengthen social consciousness.

According to Oxfam, recent research shows that the Big 10 emitted 263.7 million tons of greenhouse gases in 2013. As noted, if these companies were a state, it would be the 25th most polluting state in the world.
