    Perdue

    I dun buy their shit The Humane Society of the United States June 22, 2010 HUMANE ACTION ******************************** HELP EXPOSE PERDUE'S FAKE "HUMANE" CLAIMS Dear Michelle, You may have seen my blog last week on "humanewashing" in the agribusiness industry, where I discussed Perdue's new "Humanely Raised" marketing scheme: http://action.humanesociety.org/site/R?i=PGT30kZBgsNJxD-ljc6MmA.. Perdue and Harvestland brand chicken products are now carrying labels claiming that the chickens were "Humanely Raised." The claim is based on guidelines developed by industry group the National Chicken Council, which are anything but humane. Please help us put a stop to these false and misleading advertising claims. If you or someone you know have purchased a Perdue or Harvestland product with the "Humanely Raised" label, let us know: http://action.humanesociety.org/site/R?i=79qbpxgex0zdJ09bQBsmzQ.. Thanks for all you do for animals. Wayne Pacelle, President & CEO
  16. there is no reversed quick PBO hasn't reversed any Bushy bullshit he re-uped it
  17. Nausea, vomiting, nosebleeds, headaches, and chest pain: these are just some of the identical symptoms reported by people working around BP's oil in the Gulf Coast.[1] More than 100 people in the Gulf have fallen ill from BP's oil, and that doesn't include untold numbers of workers hiding their symptoms for fear of being fired by BP.[2] Yet despite clear evidence of illness from exposure to oil and dispersants, BP refuses to provide respirators to people cleaning up its disaster. Why? Because BP is afraid of the PR impact from images of people wearing this critical safety equipment in pictures and on TV.[3] BP even threatened to fire workers who choose to wear their own.[4] This is ridiculous. No amount of good PR images for BP is worth the health and lives of people battling BP's oil in the Gulf Coast. Sign our petition for BP to pay for proper safety equipment and respirators for cleanup workers. Click here to add your name: http://action.firedoglake.com/respirators We'll make sure that your petition also goes to key government decision makers on the oil disaster and worker safety so they can take steps to protect cleanup workers in the Gulf. BP's oil disaster isn't the first time in recent history that workers responding to a hazardous emergency have had their lungs - and lives - put at risk. Just like after 9/11, we're already seeing cleanup workers with serious health problems after exposure to toxic chemicals without adequate protection. If the government properly enforced its safety standards after 9/11, every person at Ground Zero would have worn a respirator that could have protected their health and saved their lives.[5] With workers' rights advocacy group American Rights at Work, we're launching this petition to key decision makers in the oil disaster for a simple idea: any worker who wants safety equipment like breathing respirators should get it, and BP should pick up the tab. We can't afford to fail our nation's workers in yet another disaster. Join our call to make BP to pay for breathing respirators and other safety equipment for workers in the Gulf. Click here to sign our petition: http://action.firedoglake.com/respirators Cleanup workers deserve the best protection possible from the nasty effects from BP's oil. Paying for safety equipment for workers who want it is really the least BP should do for the people cleaning up its disaster. The government agency responsible for overseeing worker safety - the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) - says that their tests showed respirators aren't yet required for cleanup workers in the Gulf.[6] While OSHA is still studying the air quality in the Gulf, it should be no coincidence that dozens of people working around BP's oil disaster are falling ill with symptoms of chemical exposure to oil. Every worker needs access to the right respirators, training and safety equipment for protection from BP's toxic stew in the Gulf. In addition to sending our petition to BP, we'll also send it to US Oil Disaster leader Thad Allen and government worker safety officials to make your voice heard by people who can make change happen. Click here to add your name to our call for BP to pay for respirators and safety equipment for cleanup workers: http://action.firedoglake.com/respirators Thanks for all you do to take on BP in its disaster.
