Apple har nu indrømmet, at hele femten af deres kinesiske leverandører ikke overholder miljø lovgivningen og bruger for mange giftige produkter i forbindelse med produktionen af Apple produkter.

Arbejderne hos leverandørene er gået til myndighederne den 15. november for at få arbejdsforholdene på plads. Ifølge kinesiske miljøbevægelser udleder fabrikkerne giftige dampe, tungmetaller og andre typer af forureninger.

Jobs mob has always claimed it was committed to "the highest standards of social responsibility." and vowed to improve its environmental standards for suppliers. It also acknowledged that a number of its suppliers have failed to properly keep track of wastewater pollution and other emissions. Apple officials also said they would take environmental contamination into future considerations.
