Sustainable development? Well they do give money to NGOs which gets them a greenwashing pass-go-get-out-of-jail-free card.
They also own a number of bottled water and mineral water companies around the world packaged in both plastic and glass.
It was reported on Apr 17, 2006 ... Nestlé Obtains a Patent on Genetically Modified Coffee Plants.
They have switched palm oil suppliers after a campaign this past year but have not stopped using palm oil in its products.
They have done a good job of greenwashing and this award will be used to try and make them look like a good guy company.
Do a little search on your own when you see a for-profit firm getting an award for being sustainable. And check out the companies giving "awards/grants/cash" based on your "voting" for your favorite charity. Their purpose? Spend a little to buy a whole lot of good feeling while they kill your community or planet, and maybe export your job out of the country.
