They had composed a report labeling it “the worst company in the world.” They had sent out press releases to media organizations (including Grist, naturally) about the planned blitz. They had paid for several scathing bus ads which would proclaim Cargill’s guilt throughout its hometown of Minneapolis.

Now, that detente has broken down in conflict.On Thursday, Mighty Earth protesters dressed in cow costumes were ready to parade in front of Cargill’s headquarters. The organization released its report, describing Cargill as “the worst company in the world.”“We recognize this is an audacious claim,” wrote Henry Waxman, the chairman of Mighty Earth and a former member of Congress for some 40 years. “But this report provides extensive and compelling evidence to back it up.”The report doesn’t actually weigh Cargill against other corporations. Instead, it reads like a lawyer’s brief listing the black marks on the company’s record: sickening people with infected beef, killing fish with water pollution, buying from farmers that forced children to labor in the fields, and allegedly cheating customers with <a href="https://cftc.gov/PressRoom/PressReleases/pr7640-17" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">financial</a> <a href="https://www.cleveland.com/metro/2015/06/cargill_morton_agree_to_115_se.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">shenanigans</a>.It seemed like enviros and executives were actually making progress together for once. So why did everything go to crap? The primary reason Mighty Earth launched this attack is that Cargill failed to deliver on a sweeping promise to end deforestation by 2020, according to Glenn Hurowitz, CEO of Mighty Earth. Cargill made this commitment back in 2014 in the lead up to the United Nations climate agreement in Paris. The company’s CEO, David MacLennan, <a href="https://www.cargill.com/news/releases/2014/NA31693655.jsp" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">went to the United Nations to declare</a> that Cargill would use its influence to stop forests from falling anywhere in every corner of the globe where it conducts business.Environmental groups applauded but also promised to hold the company to its pledge. Then Cargill began to grapple with the enormity of the challenge, and <a href="https://grist.org/food/is-cargill-backsliding-on-its-promise-to-end-deforestation/" style="box-sizing: border-box; background-color: transparent; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">executives realized that there was no way that, before 2020</a>, they would be able to ensure that it never bought a single grain of wheat or soybean from land that was previously forest.Meanwhile, farmers and ranchers worldwide were tearing down forests at a faster pace. Environmental groups grew increasingly frustrated with Cargill and the other corporations that had made similar pledges to curb deforestation. Last month, during a meeting of the Consumer Goods Forum, a group of some 400 companies working to end deforestation (along with many other goals), <a href="https://www.greenpeace.org/international/press-release/22356/greenpeace-peaceful-protest-disrupts-ceos-linked-with-destroying-millions-of-forest-hectares/" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">Greenpeace activists rappelled down from the rafters</a> holding a banner that read, “still destroying forests.”“When [Cargill] CEO MacLennan made the announcement in 2014 it was clear to me that there hadn’t been a lot of planning that when into that,” said Rolf Skar, assistant campaign director at Greenpeace USA. “I don’t mind when CEOs are ambitious and push a bold agenda, but something has definitely not worked in the years since.”Or as Mighty Earth put it, “Cargill dropped the ball. And then they stomped on it.”The breakdown in talks between Mighty Earth and Cargill was specifically related to soy markets in Brazil. According to Hurowitz, MacLennan agreed to support a moratorium on deforestation in the Cerrado — a region about the size of Mexico in central Brazil — and meet with other CEOs to get them to do the same. But, as the months passed, Hurowitz was frustrated by Cargill’s refusal to get tough with soy growers. The final straw came when the company told farmers it would not support the moratorium (we wrote about that <a href="https://grist.org/article/cargill-promised-to-end-deforestation-its-telling-farmers-something-else/" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">here</a>).

But Scott Poynton, founder of the Earthworm Foundation, thinks he has a pretty good idea of what’s going on. His organization (back then it was called The Forest Trust) was working closely with Cargill when the corporation decided to make its 2014 pledge. Though Poynton wasn’t part of those talks, he’s seen similar fights play out over deforestation commitments in Southeast Asia. In 2016, Poynton saw companies scurry when the Indonesian government threatened the palm oil corporations that were making their own rules to govern land use to stop deforestation.“The government said, ‘Let’s be bloody clear, this is our country and we make the rules around here, so if you guys aren’t going to play by our game, you can all bugger off,’” Poynton paraphrased. (Yes, he’s Australian.) “I absolutely guarantee that such discussions have been had, in probably quite unsavory terms, between Cargill Brazil and the government of Brazil.”It’s risky for foreign companies like Cargill to try and control land use policy in Brazil when the country’s new president, <a href="https://grist.org/article/is-bolsonaro-the-trump-of-the-tropics-or-is-trump-the-bolsonaro-of-the-states/" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">Jair Bolsonaro, supports more development of forest land</a>. Tellingly, soy farmers in Brazil didn’t exactly react with gratitude when <a href="https://grist.org/article/cargill-promised-to-end-deforestation-its-telling-farmers-something-else/" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">Cargill told them it opposed a moratorium</a> on soy expansion in the Cerrado, on June 24. Several farmers’ associations <a href="https://www.noticiasagricolas.com.br/noticias/agronegocio/237686-resposta-a-cargill-cerrado-quer-continuar-usando-areas-a-que-tem-direito.html#.XSWObJNKhTZ" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">responded</a> by writing to the company that they had already done a great deal to protect their natural areas without Cargill’s help, and they intended to plow the land to which they were “entitled.”“The tone has changed since Bolsonaro was elected, raising farmers expectations that they can still clear,” said Rachael Garrett, an assistant professor of Environmental Policy at ETH Zurich who has studied the conversion of land to soy fields in Brazil. Cargill understands how power has shifted, and that’s probably a major reason it decided not to support the Cerrado moratorium, she said.In other words, the farmers know the government has their back. So Cargill has to weigh keeping its pledge against maintaining good relationships with its Brazilian producers and regulators.“What would we expect Cargill to do?” Poynton asked. “They are walking an absolute tightrope. Does that make Cargill the most evil company in the world? No, I think it makes Cargill a company operating in a bullseye of a desperately wicked problem.”Mighty Earth counters that one of Cargill’s corporate peers in the Brazilian soy market, the Louis Dreyfus Company, based in the Netherlands, has shown that a big company can stick to its word. Louis Dreyfus said it would stop buying soy from any farmer that destroyed native ecosystems or took land from indigenous people. “Meanwhile, Cargill has kept the bulldozers running,” Mighty Earth wrote in their report.Statements from Cargill executives suggest that they don’t think drawing a hard line would do any good right now, because the other big grain traders, ADM and Bunge, have also refused to stop buying from farmers that plow up the Cerrado. If one of them gets tough with farmers, the soy might simply flow to another company (it’s a classic case of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prisoner%27s_dilemma" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit; text-decoration-skip-ink: auto; border-bottom: 0.0625rem solid rgb(7, 96, 126); transition: border-color 0.15s ease-out 0s; text-decoration-line: none !important;">prisoner’s dilemma</a>). But environmentalists think the other companies might join the moratorium if Cargill — the biggest of them all — took the leap.===<a href="https://theconversation.com/strict-amazon-protections-made-brazilian-farmers-more-productive-new-research-shows-105789">https://theconversation.com/strict-amazon-protections-made-brazilian-farmers-more-productive-new-research-shows-105789</a><div class="grid-ten large-grid-nine grid-last content-body content entry-content instapaper_body" itemprop="articleBody" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 12px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: rgb(255, 255, 255); line-height: 1.8; float: left; width: 754px;">Jair Bolsonaro, <a href="https://theconversation.com/what-bolsonaros-presidency-means-for-brazil-5-essential-reads-105894" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">Brazil’s new president</a>, will make many decisions during his four-year term, from combating violence to stimulating a stagnant economy.Those decisions will have large impacts on Brazilians, who remain deeply divided over the controversial election of this <a href="https://theconversation.com/bolsonaro-wins-brazil-election-promises-to-purge-leftists-from-country-105481" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">far-right populist</a>.But some of Bolsonaro’s decisions will affect the entire world, namely his promises to cut environmental protections in the Brazilian Amazon.<h2 style="margin: 0px 0px 12px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">The Amazon’s uncertain fate</h2>The Amazon is the world’s largest tropical rainforest and a <a href="https://e360.yale.edu/features/global_commodities_boom_fuels_new_assault_on_amazon" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">major global food exporter</a>.The Amazon Basin also provides the rains that nourish Brazil’s productive croplands to the south, a <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-brazil-farming-factbox-idUSTRE78M5HS20110923" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">breadbasket for the world</a>.

white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">defends Brazilian agribusiness interests</a>.Despite the lobby’s stance that regulation hurts business, Brazil’s strict environmental laws have actually helped Amazonian farmers, my <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0959378017312669#.W8yp0HPwe_0.twitter" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">recent research</a> shows.From 2004 to 2014, Brazil’s federal government employed a host of tactics to <a href="https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/53a5/9c0ef21a0a748f02e26969df1ff9dbc249f2.pdf" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">reduce Amazonian farmers’ incentives</a> to clear land. It increased penalties for deforestation, making it far more expensive to create new grazing land. Simultaneously, it <a href="http://www.agricultura.gov.br/assuntos/sustentabilidade/plano-abc/historico" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">offered state-subsidized, low-interest financing</a> for farmers who adopted more sustainable practices.Those policies encouraged innovations that have made Amazon farmland much more productive. In a co-authored study <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0959378017312669#.W8yp0HPwe_0.twitter" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">published in October in the journal Global Environmental Change</a>, my colleagues and I found that food production in the Amazon has substantially increased since 2004.Amazonian farmers are now planting and harvesting two crops – mostly soybean and corn – each year, rather than just one. This is called “double cropping.”Our study found that land in double cropping in Brazil’s most important agricultural state, Mato Grosso, increased from 840,000 acres in 2001 to more than 10.6 million acres in 2013, boosted by improved environmental laws.<h2 style="margin: 0px 0px 12px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">Farmers are getting richer</h2>Environmental regulation of the Brazilian Amazon has helped farmers improve business in other ways too, our research found.Improved pasture management in Mato Grosso state led the number of cattle slaughtered annually per acre to double, meaning farmers are producing more meat – and therefore earning <a href="http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/aac4d1/meta" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">more money</a> – with their land.Ranchers who add crops into pasture areas can <a href="http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/aac4d1/meta" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">more than quadruple</a> the amount of beef produced because cattle raised in integrated crop and livestock systems gain weight more quickly. That spares remaining Amazonian forests from deforestation.These sustainable ranching practices also reduce the greenhouse gases associated with beef and leather production. Better nourished cows are slaughtered sooner, meaning <a href="https://theconversation.com/seaweed-could-hold-the-key-to-cutting-methane-emissions-from-cow-burps-66498" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">fewer burps per cow</a> per lifetime, leading to lower methane emissions.

Brazil’s progressive environmental protections have even pushed corporations that operate in the Amazon to adopt more sustainable practices.Since 2006, hundreds of multinational food and timber companies, including Cargill and Nestle, have adopted “<a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41558-017-0061-1" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">zero-deforestation commitments</a>” – pledges that they will never again source products from farmers who continue to deforest their land.The commitments started in the Brazilian Amazon and have since extended to <a href="http://forestdeclaration.org/goal/goal-2/" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">all forests on the planet</a>, including the <a href="https://www.ucsusa.org/global-warming/stop-deforestation/drivers-of-deforestation-2016-palm-oil#.W9ujHxNKjdQ" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">Indonesian and Malaysian rainforests</a>.Brazilian law, which restricts Amazonian farmers from clearing more than 20 percent of their land and requires them to federally register their property for monitoring, has made it easier for zero-deforestation companies to drop producers who cut down trees.<h2 style="margin: 0px 0px 12px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">Saving the Amazon</h2>Strong environmental protections are necessary to save the Amazon, protecting Brazil and the world from the loss of this <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0921800917306468" style="outline: none; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word;">critical, fragile habitat</a>.If Brazil’s next president dismantles its environmental laws, corporations could abandon their zero-deforestation standards in the Amazon. That could have ripple effects in other threatened habitats worldwide.Far from being bad for business, Brazil’s Amazonian protections help sustain the country as a global breadbasket.If Bolsonaro scraps them, he won’t just imperil a legendary rainforest.

=6. Cargill Promises to Stop Contributing to DeforestationProbably the most concrete progress to come out of the September UN Climate Summit was the <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2014/sep/23/un-climate-summit-pledge-forests-new-york-declaration" target="_blank" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.2s linear 0s; background: transparent;">New York Declaration on Forests</a>, a pledge by multinational companies such as Asia Pulp and Paper and Unilever to cut worldwide deforestation in half by 2020 and to eliminate it completely by 2030. One of the signatories was Cargill, the privately held agri-business giant. As CEO Dave MacLennan said at the UN: “We understand that this sort of commitment cannot be limited to just select commodities or supply chains. That’s why Cargill will take practical measures to protect forests across our agricultural supply chains around the world.”In a word, this is HUGE. From the pantanal of Brazil—where forests are razed for soy plantations and cattle ranches—to the ancient peat forests of Borneo—where trees are cut down to make plant massive palm monocrops—agriculture is the biggest driver of deforestation worldwide. We are humans are, quite literally, eating up wild nature.Of course, it’s one thing to make a pledge; it’s another thing to keep it. Environmental groups and other public interest watchdogs will have to stay on top of national governments and mega-corporations to ensure they keep their promises. Here’s hoping they do.

green plastic?  <a href="http://">http://www.onearth.org/blog/green-plastic-sustainable-disposable</a>

Not according to eco-plastic companies. When I spoke with Claudia Capitini of <a href="http://www.ecoproducts.com/" target="_blank">Eco-Products</a>, a Boulder-based company that makes “green” disposables, she cited a double rationale for her company’s sustainability claims: their products are made from plants, not petroleum, and because of that, they can biodegrade instead of breaking down over centuries in landfills.

So let’s look at each of those in turn. It’s true that most plastic “cold” cups (think the classic red Solo) are typically made from virgin petroleum, while paper “hot” cups (think your morning coffee) tend to be made from precious virgin hardwoods (see “<a href="http://www.onearth.org/article/meet-the-change-makers-starbucks-quest-for-a-better-cup">Starbucks’s Quest for a Better Cup</a>”). Both fossil fuels and forests are non-renewable resources (or at least, they’re resources that can be renewed only over centuries and millennia). So instead, Eco-Products uses plant-based plastics made from corn biopolymers for its cold cups, while its hot cups are made from sugar cane and bamboo. They’re still plastic, but the company’s argument is that it’s a lot easier to grow new crops than new forests.

But plastic made from crops introduces a new set of environmental problems. Food service suppliers don’t make their own plastic -- they buy it, wholesale, from a company called <a href="http://www.natureworksllc.com/" target="blank">Natureworks</a>. Natureworks is owned by multinational agribusiness giant <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargill" target="blank">Cargill</a>; its plant-based plastic, branded Ingeo, is the only game in town for eco-plastic goods. That means the corn inside each “eco-friendly” plastic cup was grown with stiff pesticides and gas-guzzling combines. Still, <a href="http://www.natureworksllc.com/%7E/media/The_Ingeo_Journey/EcoProfile_LCA/HowItsMade/NatureWorks_How_Ingeo_is_Made_poster_pdf.pdf" target="_blank">according to Natureworks</a>, “Ingeo results in 60% less greenhouse gases than the oil-based … plastic it replaces.”

The second argument for “green” plastic is that it has a  better “end-of-life” footprint. Traditional plastics can be recycled, but they frequently end up in landfills, where they do not biodegrade, or tossed on the side of a road somewhere, where decomposition takes centuries. Worse, some plastics leach toxic chemicals as they break down.

Corn-based plastic is, in theory, biodegradable and, instead of being thrown away, can be composted for future use in farming, gardening, and topsoil. And though more testing should be done, Natureworks claims that improperly disposed plant plastic releases no harmful chemicals into the environment.

<h2 style="">Overview & history</h2>

Cargill is the largest supplier of grains in the world. It is the world's second largest supplier of animal feed and the second largest supplier for food and industrial starches. The company is also the second largest meat packer in the U.S., after <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Tyson_Foods" title="Tyson Foods">Tyson Foods</a>. Excel was bought by Cargill in 1979 and has divisions in Australia and Canada. The company also owns Caprock, a large beef feed lot operation. Cargill is the second largest turkey processor in the U.S. It also owns Sunny Fresh egg products and Empack Foods, a meat processing company. Cargill owns Wisepack Transport, a refrigerated trucking company which transports Empack Foods and Wisconsin products across the U.S. <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-1" title="">[2]</a>

<h3 style="">Obsessively private</h3>

Cargill has been described as the "most dominating and obsessively private". Cargill is twice the size of its closest rival, <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Archer_Daniels_Midland" title="Archer Daniels Midland">Archer Daniels Midland</a>. In sales Cargill, is the 19th-largest company in America. The company runs over a thousand production sites and in 59 countries. Cargill or farmers working for the company, raise 17% of the world's turkeys. In the U.S., it controls 22% of beef production and 25% of grain and oilseed exports. Its vast financial trading branch is a leading commodity broker and a heavyweight in sovereign debt. Cargill reportedly controlled one quarter of Russia's bond market.

Is this behemoth too big or its own good or the good of the country? Suspicions run deep as Cargill goes to such lengths to keep a low profile. Some foreign facilities do not even bear the company's name and its annual report contains no financial tables. Even former employees are reticent about their previous employer. The company has been incomparably adept at growing without having to go public and having to make the compromises that entails. According to lawyer C. Daniel Clemente, a Cargill family trustee:

<dd>"Cargill should be the Harvard Business School model for how to stay private."</dd>

</dl>

Cargill was founded in 1865 by William and Samuel Cargill, sons of a Scottish sea captain. It started as a lone grain storage flat house in a frontier town in Iowa. The company grew like bamboo, snaking its roots below ground and shooting up in unexpected places. From the grain trade, Cargill diversified into farming, milling, flavoring, energy trading and a global mixture of seemingly unrelated ventures such as steel, finances and ownership of a Las Vegas casino. The businesses operated autonomously, unaware or unconcerned with each other. <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-2" title="">[3]</a> William's son-in-law, John MacMillan took control of the company in 1909. The Cargill family owns 88% of company and the remainder is employee owned. In 2008, the company's net profits were almost 4 billion dollars, up 69% from previous year. The company also owns the majority of the publicly traded Mosaic Company, which makes fertilizer. <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-3" title="">[4]</a>

<h2 style="">Health issues</h2>

<h3 style="">Lawsuit: Minnesota E.-coli outbreak traced to Cargill</h3>

In December of 2009, a Minnesota woman sued Cargill for $100 million after becoming severely ill from an E. coli infection. Stephanie Smith, 22, became ill in September of 2007 after eating a tainted hamburger traced to Cargill. Her infection led to hemolytic uremic syndrome, causing kidney failure. She suffered from seizures and spent three months in a medically induced coma. The former children's dance instructor spent two years in rehabilitation and remains in a wheelchair. She was featured in a <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=New_York_Times" title="New York Times">New York Times</a> story that traced hamburger to four plants in two countries, revealing how the modern meat packing industry operates. The story generated worldwide attention and spurred <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Congress" title="Congress" class="mw-redirect">Congress</a> to consider tougher food safety laws. The lawsuit was filed in federal court in Minneapolis and names the Wichita based Cargill Meat Solutions. According to Bill Marler, her Seattle-based food-illness attorney:

<dd>"What it comes down to is Cargill really believes it's not their fault. They believe that it's one of their supplier's faults, but there's no evidence to suggest which one of their suppliers is at fault."</dd>

</dl>

Ms. Smith's medical bills have already totaled over two million dollars. It is estimated that they will add up to tens of millions. Her attorney predicted she would need multiple kidney transplants and likely remain in a wheelchair. Cargill has paid for some of her medical bills. According to her attorney, Ms. Smith's case is exceptional due to the severity of her injuries:

<dd>"She is far and away the most severely injured person who's ever survived this that I've ever seen."<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-4" title="">[5]</a>, <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-5" title="">[6]</a></dd>

</dl>

Ms. Smith developed a rare, but potentially fatal complication from her E. coli infection which shut down her kidneys and ultimately left her paralyzed. Ten other Minnesotans became ill after eating the hamburger. Three of the ten developed the same complications, suggesting a particularly nasty strain. Were it not for Minnesota's Department of Health, more people would have become ill. State health officials quickly linked the outbreak to the hamburger and issued a recall for approximately 850,000 pounds of beef.

<h3 style="">Cargill's response</h3>

According to a company statement responding to the New York Times story, Cargill "issued a voluntary recall in October" after they "learned there might be a problem". However, assuming the health department's well publicized recall was already underway, Cargills' recall could hardly be considered "voluntary". They go on to assure that they "conduct nearly 400,000 tests for pathogens each year using a testing methodology that exceeds <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=U.S._Department_of_Agriculture" title="U.S. Department of Agriculture">U.S. Department of Agriculture</a> (USDA) standards." However, no amount of testing can ensure that meat or dairy is pathogen free. Missing a contaminated particle the size of a pinhead, may potentially result in an infection. According to Dr. Kirk Smith, an epidemiologist from Minnesota's Department of Health, "It's just not physically possible to test your way out of the problem."

It is common meat industry practice to use a number of suppliers, both in and outside of the U.S. This practice has led to problems in other industries, such as pet foods and pharmaceuticals. This increases an already high risk of contamination. However, according to Cargill:

<dd>"We are committed to continuous improvement in the area of food safety."<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-6" title="">[7]</a></dd>

</dl>

<h3 style="">Food borne illnesses & high risk meat products</h3>

Due to factory farm and slaughterhouse methods; there are risks of food borne illness in virtually all U.S. meats, dairy products and eggs. There are currently no requirements for testing for food borne illnesses due to lobbying by the meat and dairy industries. Cows are raised in huge feed lots the size of cities and become smeared with fecal matter and other filth. Slaughterhouse workers are under pressure to work at an ever increasing pace, sometimes being forced to kill and gut as many as 330 animals an hour. <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-7" title="">[8]</a>

E. Coli bacteria can be found in up to 50% of U.S. cattle carcasses. <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-8" title="">[9]</a> It has been estimated that 70% of of store brought chickens contain harmful bacteria. <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-9" title="">[10]</a> and 90% of turkeys. <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-10" title="">[11]</a> Campylobacter is the leading cause of food-borne illness in the U.S. with the primary source being contaminated chicken flesh. Chicken warehouses may contain 50,000 birds. Antibiotics also make them vulnerable to disease as strains of bacteria become resistant. Approximately 5,000 people a day contract Campylobacter food poisoning every day in the U.S. Chickens in the U.S. are frequently infected with salmonella, unlike European countries where livestock are treated more humanely and given more space, resulting in better health and fewer pathogens. According to Mitchell Cohen, M.D. of the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Centers_for_Disease_Control_and_Prevention" title="Centers for Disease Control and Prevention">Centers for Disease Control and Prevention</a> (CDCP), there are outbreaks of Salmonella related to almost every animal product, including poultry, beef, pork, eggs and dairy products. Instead of addressing and correcting factory farm conditions which encourage disease, the U.S. meat industry uses irradiation or nuclear radiation to kill pathogens. <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-11" title="">[12]</a> See also <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Meat_%26_dairy_industry" title="Meat & dairy industry" class="mw-redirect">meat & dairy industry</a>, sections 4 & 5.

<h3 style="">"Animal Nutrition Young Scientist Award"</h3>

Lance Baumgard, PhD received the 2007 Cargill "Animal Nutrition Young Scientist Award". Dr. Baumgard "writes and speaks on the weak connection between dietary fat and human disease." <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-12" title="">[13]</a>

<h2 style="">Sierra Club's "Ten Least Wanted" list</h2>

In 2002, Cargill made the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Sierra_Club" title="Sierra Club">Sierra Club</a>'s "Ten Least Wanted" list.

Just weeks after the second-largest beef recall in history, the Sierra Club released a report on hundreds of criminal and civil violations of America's largest corporate factory farms. The Rap sheet documented convictions for animal cruelty, bribery, records destruction, fraud, worker endangerment and pollution.

<dd>"Despite repeated violations of environmental and public health laws, many of the companies highlighted in the Rap Sheets continue to receive millions of dollars every year from the School Lunch Program and other federal food assistance programs." <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Cargill#cite_note-13" title="">[14]</a></dd>
