  • Frequently Asked Questions
    Frequently Asked Questions What Types of Companies Are on the "Don't Test" List? This list includes companies that make cosmetics, personal-care products, household-cleaning products, and other common household products. All companies that are included on PETA's "don't test" list have signed our statement of assurance verifying that they and their ingredient suppliers don't conduct, commission, pay for, or allow any tests on animals for ingredients, formulations, or finished products anywhere in the world and will not do so in the future. We encourage consumers to support the companies on this list, since we know that they're committed to making products without harming animals. Companies on the "Do Test" list should be shunned until they implement a policy that prohibits animal testing. The "do test" list doesn't include companies that manufacture only products that are required by law to be tested on animals (e.g., pharmaceuticals and garden chemicals). Although PETA is opposed to all animal testing, our focus in those instances is less on the individual companies and more on the regulatory agencies that require animal testing. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Legend V - The company makes or sells strictly vegan products. L - The company has licensed PETA's official cruelty-free bunny logo. F - The company is a PETA Business Friend, and shopping at this company supports an innovative partnership for compassionate companies willing to assist in PETA's groundbreaking work to stop animal abuse and suffering.

Excludes intercompany sales of $9 million for both 2004 and 2003. Management believes this information is useful to investors because the businesses of the Company and its unconsolidated equity investees are managed on a combined basis, and management uses combined performance measures to analyze performance and develop financial objectives. Moreover, since the results of operations of the former Armkel business have been included in Church & Dwight's consolidated statement of income beginning on May 29, 2004, the information enhances comparability over the relevant period. (3) Excludes, in 2004, an accounting charge of $0.10 per share related to the acquisition of the 50% interest in Armkel that the Company did not previously own, as well as charges of $0.20 per share related to the early redemption of debt.

  • What You Can Do to Reduce Your Exposure to Chemicals
    WHAT YOU CAN DO TO REDUCE YOUR EXPOSURE TO CHEMICALS Eat organically grown food whenever possible. Many pesticides and herbicides are carcinogenic, and many have a chemical structure that is very similar to estrogens. These can stimulate the growth of breast tumors. Organic food is grown without chemicals or hormones and has been found to be much higher in nutrients than foods grown in commercially fertilized, nutrient-depleted soil. Especially, avoid non-organic eggs, dairy products and meats, as hormones and antibiotics are fed to the animals. The following fruits and vegetables have been found to have the highest levels of pesticides (when grown non-organically.) Avoid them unless they are organic: strawberries, bell peppers, spinach, cherries, peaches, cantaloupe, celery, apples, apricots,green beans, Chilean grapes, cucumbers. Foods that tend to be low in pesticides EWG analysis of the latest government test results shows that the following fruits and vegetables have the least pesticide contamination among conventionally-grown foods. Fruits Vegetables 1) Pineapples 1) Avocado 2) Plantains 2) Cauliflower 3) Mangoes 3) Brussels Sprouts 4) Bananas 4) Asparagus 5) Watermelon 5) Radishes 6) Plums 6) Broccoli 7) Kiwi Fruit 7) Onions 8) Blueberries 8) Okra 9) Papaya 9) Cabbage 10) Grapefruit 10) Eggplant Do not use pesticides or herbicides in your home or on your lawn or garden. Lawn and garden chemicals have been found to increase cancer rates in pets and people. Avoid Plastics if possible: Their production releases chlorinated toxins into the environment. Reduce or eliminate the use of plastic containers for food storage. Certain plasticizers, which add flexibility to plastic food wraps, are suspected endocrine disrupters.

  • Companies That Do Test on Animals
    COMPANIES THAT DO TEST ON ANIMALS Frequently Asked Questions Why are these companies included on the 'Do Test' list? The following companies manufacture products that ARE tested on animals. Those marked with a are currently observing a moratorium (i.e., current suspension of) on animal testing. Please encourage them to announce a permanent ban. Listed in parentheses are examples of products manufactured by either the company listed or, if applicable, its parent company. For a complete listing of products manufactured by a company on this list, please visit the company's Web site or contact the company directly for more information. Companies on this list may manufacture individual lines of products without animal testing (e.g., Clairol claims that its Herbal Essences line is not animal-tested). They have not, however, eliminated animal testing from their entire line of cosmetics and household products. Similarly, companies on this list may make some products, such as pharmaceuticals, that are required by law to be tested on animals. However, the reason for these companies' inclusion on the list is not the animal testing that they conduct that is required by law, but rather the animal testing (of personal-care and household products) that is not required by law. What can be done about animal tests required by law? Although animal testing of pharmaceuticals and certain chemicals is still mandated by law, the arguments against using animals in cosmetics testing are still valid when applied to the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. These industries are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency, respectively, and it is the responsibility of the companies that kill animals in order to bring their products to market to convince the regulatory agencies that there is a better way to determine product safety.

    Market Leader Quarter 4, 2010 www.warc.com Editorial: Barriers to innovation Judie Lannon We have looked at innovation a number of times, but in the cover story of this issue John Kearon takes a heretical approach – arguing that marketing science itself and the centralisation of marketing expertise in large organisations may be at the root of the lack of genuine new category innovation. The theme of the ponderous, risk-averse corporation which is excellent at nurturing what it has (and, indeed, is the reason it got big) but not so hot at creating genuinely new category brands is familiar territory. But Kearon's evidence is compelling. And challenging. However, another light at the end of this particular tunnel may lie with the work being done with online communities and other forms of co- creation. Done bravely and imaginatively, this dispenses with the cliché of consumers not knowing what they want by going straight to the more creative thinker-users (often fanatics who, theoretically, could be just as inventive as any company research and development department or engineer). This approach is radical in itself and has the potential to encourage large companies to behave like the more adventurous startups. But, as has been examined in several articles in previous issues of Market Leader, the problem never lies in having the idea – that's the easy bit. Getting it through mazes and silos of the organisational hierarchy is the difficult bit. But the search for barriers to innovative thinking goes much wider than merely the size and structure of the organisation.
