USA: Apple admits child labor growing problem at its China factories
"I spoke with Ma Jun today. He's China's most famous environmentalist, and he's spent the last year trying to get Apple to admit that one of its suppliers had exposed workers to a toxic chemical, poisoning 137 of them. Up until now, Apple ignored this issue and insinuated it didn't even have a relationship with the supplier. Today Apple finally admits its supplier was responsible for this, and it says the supplier is no longer using the chemical that poisoned the workers and it's also paying medical bills. Ma Jun told me he's pleased that Apple is addressing these problems, but he says these problems aren't going away and Apple still needs to do more."
