Beijing 2008 – boycott olympics with your wallets

By wmigda

In these modern times protesters in Tibet and anywhere else around the world will be regarded only as a symbolic gesture by those who decided to organise and support olympic games in Beijing. It will make a little difference (unfortunately) when it comes to reality of the ongoing events. But we can do something that will be recognized and will matter to those organisations and corporations – use our wallets against them. The black list of official Beijing 2008 sponsors and partners is a list of companies whose products and services shall be avoided, so they are punished for the steps they have taken to participate in this shameful event.

Don’t buy their products/services, but instead choose from their direct market competitors:

  • Coca Cola (Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite, Diet Coke, Burn, Schweppes, Kropla Beskidu, Cappy, etc.)
  • Mars (Mars, Snickers, Twix, Starburst, M&Ms, Skittles, Whiskas, Pedigree, Royal Canin, Uncle Ben’s, etc.)
  • Kodak
  • McDonalds
  • Lenovo
  • General Electric
  • Samsung
  • Panasonic
  • Adidas
  • Volkswagen
  • UPS
  • Budweiser
  • Schenker Logistics
  • VISA
  • Omega

Use your mind – use your wallet.
