1:33 pm
vigorously defend against them. the allegations are like coca cola misled consumers about the science of sugar sweeten beverages because several of their executives went out in the press and made statements like there is no link between sugar sweeten beverages and diabetes. we know that is not the case with whenever the soft drink industry is in the dark, it adopts the same line of defense. and i just wanna extend your basically always here isn't the limit that he, him one to 530 i'll complain of it said i would have to see on it and to come over . the last rhetoric is so smooth that it seems like a broken record. repetitive be ok, and i just want some research shows, you know,

have shown a link between the conception of sugar and beverages and obesity. what you answer would that come with a confound meant the lowest level completed in the fact that he didn't answer questions. we meant different researchers and menu them, compare the fight against consumption and she'll go that route to the side of tobacco. when you answer to them, no, no, no, it's completely mother him. when i grow for 20 years, the fostering industry has denied any link between its products and disease to maintain the illusion it employs all sorts of methods. since 2015 cocoa leagues has revealed that the lobby puts pressure on journalist keeps discredit on studies . it dislikes finances, favorable research, and hobnob with political leaders to ensure those results. contact was established
1:35 pm
within the senate. we will actively campaign to register that off during tax is discriminatory, regressive, and will not address the challenge of obesity. we have commissioned the economic institute to complete a study which will prove inefficiency of such tax. it will be ready in 15 days, which will give us another tool to communicate both to the media and to avoid it. gains ground within the party transactions. so won't get out on the job. you could cook off at the policy curriculum and you do not see the button. i did this, which has shown spotty many jo increases and i think the expect on jacked my sugar. it drinks fast foods causing all these health problems. i mean look at that which he. ready has to look to times revealed that between 20082015. steve blair had received over 3 and a half $1000000.00 in research funding from coca cola
1:36 pm
appointed to serve as scientific expert by the city and county of san francisco. dean shillinger must untangle the truth from falsehood. when we did the analysis of these studies, we found that every study that found that there was no association between the sugary beverage consumption and obese in diabetes was funded in some way by the industry. whereas among all the studies that found that there was an association between the consumption of soda and sugary beverages and obese and diabetes, except for one or independently funded. so we now know and there's other evidence that industry has been influencing very deeply. the medical and scientific establishment to create controversy over the question of whether their products cause disease, me the junk food industry is cornered
1:37 pm
all over the globe acted as are demanding tighter legislation to protect consumers . the battle has now become political. the in the 30 years since warning labels and other forms of regulation were placed on tobacco over 1000000000 lives have been saved. thank say that's a pretty good day at the office. for people who make policy maliyah cohen and one of her fellow supervisors have made san francisco the 1st us city to declare war on sugary soda. when people realize how much sugar they are consuming in one can of soda, they stop and they think. so we had testimony right here in this chamber of doctors of nurses, a researchers that talk to us about the effects of sugar in our body. and it was
1:38 pm
through these ongoing dialogues for years that we came up with an idea to begin to tax sugary beverage. it with me imposing a tax is virtually revolutionary in the united states. the industry rage, it fads pitch the line that the government was interest bearing with grocery shoppers feeding a family. it's difficult enough in today's economy. now some politicians want the government telling me how i should do it. they want to put new taxes. i'm a lot of groceries. i bought the beverage. the sugar beverage industry came out. they hired lawyers, they hired lobbyists, they found people within the community to come out and say, please don't tell us what to eat or what to drink. this is not a nanny state, we want to make decisions on our own. they spent millions of dollars as a matter of fact, the outspent, it's almost $6.00 to $1.00. give me a break. i can decide what to buy without government help. the government is just
1:39 pm
getting to involved in our personal lives, tell the candidates and government needs to trim it, but help advocate were able to mobilize citizen protest against the recalcitrant industry. we're going to win this about doctors and politicians lining up outside of san francisco, city hall framing the sugar sweetened beverage debate, and the people versus big soda. we no longer can sit back and let the big go to industry target and her, our community. ah, the taxes finally voted in the victory was bitter. when san francisco moved require help warnings on soda containers like the ones on cigarettes. the fostering lobby, sued once again, and one on appeal. the warning labels were shelved. the same method had been used in new york city. when mayor michael bloomberg suggested
1:40 pm
a law limiting the size of jumbo soda, sold and restaurant the bloomberg was marked as a scolding nanny and the court ruled in the industry favor. ah, in this face off between corporate freedom and consumer protection. freedom once again seemed to be the private property of the most powerful. i represent a part of san francisco that was immigrate people, people who speak english as a 2nd language, people who live in subsidized housing, public housing, tenements. and the one thing that we all had in common was that we weren't dying from preventable diseases dying and you know, that was just really hard to step and
1:41 pm
it seemed like people didn't care. the industry didn't care. they continue to target their money and their resources to get people addicted so that the become wealthier. so what brings me to this entire conversation is that i don't want to wear people to die. and if it means changing policy, changing, educating people for they are aware of the choices that they have and bringing more choices to people. then that's what i'm about. that's what i'm fighting for. and we can at least sit by and let them kill us. so that's why i'm
1:42 pm

1:56 pm
of labeling chile, my dear job on the other side of the atlantic. the contrast is striking europe neutral score labeling is fairly timid compared to the black labels in chile. only a few countries have adopted it and it is not even mandatory already you need me to just say that one system, it's ashley. the more i did it in the past, due to present on fishy character, will be at last. so another winning strategy for corporate interest in germany has been to play the role the allies and the fight against it. all this commercial produced by a supermarket chain promises a commitment to promoting healthy foods to help children make their dreams come
1:57 pm
