Morrison’s
and
Climate Change
Below are extracts of letters between the supermarket company Morrison’s and
Peter Shullot about climate change. The letters in full are at the bottom of the
page. This is one of 65 sets of letters so you can find out what your
supermarket, energy supplier and car manufacturer, and oil companies, airlines,
house builders and other companies really think about climate change. The name
Peter Shullot is made up – it is an anagram of The Polluters.
To
Marc Bolland, Chief Executive –
I’ll be honest. I had concerns when Morrisons took over Safeway’s, wondering
whether your blunt Northern ways would fit with our soft Southern sensibilities.
But I needn’t have worried. Everything is just the same as before – but cheaper!
Well done.
For good measure I see that you are the
GAPbuster Customer
Experience Champion Award 2005-06 and the Best Retailer of the Year in the
British
Turkey Awards 2006. Fully deserved. And now I see that you are going to replace
your
advertising slogan, "More reasons to shop at Morrisons", with "Fresh for you
every day". That should bring you in even more awards.
What has driven me to put finger to keyboard is not just to congratulate you but
also to sound off about climate change. Now it seems you’re doing nothing about
it. Which is fine by me because it’s the biggest lie since Channel 4 claimed Big
Brother was as much as an institution as Wimbledon, or the gold-digging Heather
Mills said she’d love, honour and obey Paul McCartney.
