Monasanto Named One Of The Most Sustainable Companies Of 2014

Monsanto Company was recognized yesterday on the 2014 Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World (Global 100) index, produced by Toronto-based media company, Corporate Knights. Monsanto ranked 37th overall, and was 5th highest ranked among U.S. companies and 5th globally in the materials industry.

According to Corporate Knights, Monsanto scored well in energy, greenhouse gas and waste productivity; and also in leadership diversity and innovation capacity.

The Global 100 has come to be recognized as the gold standard in corporate sustainability analysis. Companies named to the Global 100 are the top overall sustainability performers in their respective industrial sectors.

To many in the environmental movements, naming corporations like Monsanto and Nestle as sustainable. Might come as a surprise, or maybe even seen as shocking. But for anyone who has looked into sustainability under the United Nations Agenda 21 model. This is hardly surprising in any way.

As I highlighted in an article about an organization called the World Business Council for Sustainable Development, United Nations Agenda 21 fully supports genetically modified foods.

““Promote the integration of appropriate and traditional biotechnologies for the purposes of cultivating genetically modified plants, rearing healthy animals and protecting forest genetic resources;”
16.5, k. Agenda 21

The idea of genetic modification, stealing water to sell back to people, and even oil companies being sustainable or environmentally friendly is a farce. What we can see is the largest corporations in the world getting on board with the global government plan under the United Nations, and I hope it serves as a “wake up” call to those in the environmental movement!
