12:32 pm
the allegations here are likewise legally and factually merit unless and we will 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 sweetened beverages and diabetes. we know that is not the case. whenever the soft drink industry is in the dark, it adopts the same line of defense. okay. and i just wanna explain your basic academic always here isn't the limit that he him when to complete get it. i said i would have to see on an anti bully called us the rhetoric is so smooth that it seems like a broken record. repetitive be ok,

12:35 pm
a half $1000000.00 in research funding from coca cola 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 in 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
12:36 pm
all over the globe. actors 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. i'd 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
12:37 pm
of nurses, a researchers that talked to us about the effects of sugar in our body. and it was 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 interfering with grocery shoppers feeding a family is 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 on a grocery, 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
12:38 pm
a break. i can decide what to buy without government help. the government is just getting to involved in our personal lives. tell the candidates government needs to remember, but help advocate for 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 as 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 health warnings on soda containers like the ones on cigarettes. the soft drink lobby, sued once again, and one on appeal in the warning labels were shelved. i

12:40 pm
that was just really hard to accept and seem like people didn't care, the industry didn't care, they continue to target their money and resources to get people addicted so that they 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 choice to people. then that's what i'm about. that's what i'm fighting for and we
12:41 pm
can at least sit by and let them kill us. so that's why i'm involved in the oh, we've sweeten the world's guide because the market no longer were growing in europe in the u. s. so coke and pepsi and all the clones, all the local companies that do the same thing, exploded and marketing in, in low and middle income countries. mexico was the 1st country to be colonized by these agribusiness conquerors. ah,
