Smear Campaign Against Ethanol
Remember when the Union of Concerned Scientists uncovered the Exxon campaign to inject doubt into climate science? Remember how the Tobacco industry hired consultants to raise doubts about the health effects of smoking to paralyze government action?
Well, it turns out there is a coordinated effort underway to smear ethanol, and this time it's not just the oil companies who are on the attack. The new ringleader is the Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA), the lobbying arm of junk food giants like Kraft and General Mills, who are profiting nicely from the "food crisis" by raising retail food prices by more than they need to.
In fact, Kellogg directly credits "recent price increases" for their operating profit growth, not once but twice in a recent press release!
To learn more about the "smear campaign" being waged by the Grocery Manufacturers Association and their member companies, read the Roll Call article that started it all.
And maybe someone should be asking what the connection is between higher food prices and higher corporate profits.
