Take Action

The aim of Knowmore.org is to raise awareness of corporate abuse, and to serve as a catalyst for direct action against corporate power.

Ethical Consumerism is an important movement toward corporate reform, through which individuals recognize their own role in systems of oppression, and take personal steps toward resistance and  positive change.

However, the problem of unchecked corporate power is systemic and goes far beyond the scope of any single boycot or campaign.

Once you've seen enough of Knowmore's data and familiarized yourself with our Issues section, check out our Direct Action page to get involved!

Deutsche Post has grown out of its mailbox. Through its DHL unit, the company is one of the world's leading providers of express delivery and logistics services, including freight forwarding. DHL delivers to more than 220 counties and territories; overall, its operations account for more than half of the parent company's sales. Deutsche Post still handles the mail in Germany, delivering an average of 70 million letters per working day. In addition to traditional postal operations, the company provides mail process outsourcing at home and abroad. Majority-owned Deutsche Postbank offers financial services. Most of Deutsche Post's sales come from outside its home country.
