Every day we receive bad news from our environment: plastic waste in the ocean, endangered species, CO2 emissions, etc. - the media are overflowing. There are so many bad news is that you sometimes have the feeling that the consumer is deliberately fed with an overdose of information so that it can be covered at the end of the day on the couch - exhausted and overwhelmed - and stalked by the feeling that individuals paper cone cups can not do anything anyway.
In April 2010, the disaster of the Deepwater Horizon, a deep-sea platform of the oil company Shell, in the known 780 million liters of crude oil spilled into the sea occurred. One of the biggest environmental disasters of all time. Images of the oil slick and verendender marine animals paper cone cups went around the world. Great was the consternation. It seemed the time has come to finally lead fundamental debates about the future of oil production paper cone cups and mobility.

The share price of Shell in 2010 increased by 50 percent. The net profit of the Group amounted to 30.92 billion paper cone cups US dollars in 2011. Shell was even briefly's paper cone cups most valuable paper cone cups company in the world.
Similarly, our behavior when in Bangladesh once again breaks a sewing factory or burns. The appalling conditions under which local women and minors must work for the Western consumer world are well known. The same applies to the names of the brand, which can produce there. We all know them all.
The themes and examples are endless. Run by Ferrero on horse meat lasagna, dangerous softeners, genetically modified crops, Moroccan tomatoes to Wiesenhof.
