Apple
with Chinese environmental groups, will audit a supplier factory in China for
the first time, IDG News Service reported on Monday. Institute for Public
Affairs and the Environment, based in Beijing announced that Apple has agreed
to conduct joint audits, which will be conducted at the end of the month. Apple
will hire an independent auditing firm to investigate the pollution created by
one of the circuit board manufacturer Apple.
This
audit will be a pilot project intended for a single plant, but environmental
groups hope that Apple will agree to do more together in future audits. '' We
think this is a very positive step made by Apple,'' said Wang Jing Jing, deputy
director of the IPE. '' We hope this will not only be a pilot project, but further
examination is open to continue''. The results of the audit will be available
online later this year.
