Costco, Stop the Destruction

Dear Costco CEO Craig Jelinek:

Stop selling destruction. You advertise Costco as an ethical company suitable for eco-conscious consumers. Yet a closer look at your products tells a very different story.

Your meat comes from some of the most environmentally destructive suppliers in the entire food industry - Cargill, JBS, and Tyson Foods. Cargill and JBS played lead roles in driving the devastating fires in the Amazon last summer, while all three are responsible for widespread water pollution, soil erosion, and runaway climate emissions.

Through the stroke of a pen, you have the power to condemn future generations to a world of climate chaos and broken ecosystems. And that is what you are doing.

Costco: we can't wait any longer. Drop contracts with forest destroyers.
