Neoliberals often point to improvements in public health and nutrition as examples of the success of globalization but this book argues that the corporate food and medicine industries are destroying environments and ruining living conditions across the world.Scientist Stan Cox expertly draws out the strong link between Western big business and environmental destruction and tells us of the huge damage that drug manufacturers and large food corporations are inflicting on the health of people and crops worldwide. On issues ranging from the poisoning of water supplies in South Asia to natural gas depletion Cox shows how the demand for profits is always put above the public interest.While individual efforts to 'shop for a better world' and conserve energy are laudable Cox explains that they need to be accompanied by an economic system that is grounded in ecological sustainability if we are to find a cure for our sick planet.
