Dear Sir or Madam,
In anticipation of Bayer’s AGM, we, civil society organisations from both sides of the Atlantic ocean and beyond, are writing to you regarding the company’s ongoing lobbying activities, in particular those deployed in the US at the expense of US citizens’ rights. In our view, these activities do not live up to Bayer’s own Code of Conduct, nor to general principles of corporate responsibility, such as the International Code of Conduct on Pesticide Management and the basic principles of the UN Global Compact.
