Oxfam International has made a graphic showing how a handful of corporations control nearly everything we buy at the grocery store.
The graphic focuses on 10 of the world's most powerful food and beverage companies: Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, Unilever, Danone, Mars, Mondelez International, Kellogg's, General Mills, Nestle, and Associated British Foods.
Oxfam calls these companies the "Big 10" and keeps a scorecard on their environmental impact on a website devoted to the nonprofit's "Behind The Brands" campaign.
The campaign aims to make the companies more environmentally and socially conscious.
According to one of Oxfam's most recent reports , the "Big 10" emitted 263.7 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions in 2013 and if the companies were a nation, it would be the 25th most polluting country in the world.
