The HUGE companies that
operate across the world are very powerful. Some of them exploit
the differences between different countries' laws. Some locate
their factories in countries with lower environmental standards
where they can get away with producing pollution and exploiting
local workers.
For example, the oil companies, which try so hard to appear clean
and green over here, have been responsible for causing serious
pollution problems in the ‘developing’ world.
This idea was taken from a Friends of the Earth
book called 'Causing A Stink - The Eco Warrior's Handbook'
by Caroline Clayton, published by Bloomsbury Publishing
