Michal Marek ʻO Apple e like me ka hōʻike oihana AP Ua hoʻolaha ʻo ia ua pāpā i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ʻelua mau mea weliweli - benzene a me n-hexane - i nā hale hana i hana i nā iPhones a me nā iPads no ia mea. Loaʻa ka Benzene i nā hopena carcinogenic ke hoʻohana hewa ʻia, pili pinepine ʻia ka n-hexane me nā maʻi hopohopo. Hoʻohana mau ʻia nā mea ʻelua i ka hana ʻana ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe a me nā mea lahilahi.
ʻO ka hoʻoholo e pāpā i ka hoʻohana ʻana i kēia mau mea i loko o nā kaʻina hana a Apple i hoʻopuka ʻia i 5 mau mahina ma hope o kahi hui o nā mea hana Kina i kūʻē iā lākou. Kina Labor Watch a me ka neʻe ʻana o ʻAmelika ʻAmelika ʻōmaʻomaʻo. Ua kākau nā hui ʻelua i kahi palapala noi e noi ana i ka hui ʻenehana Cupertino e wehe i ka benzene a me ka n-hexane mai nā hale hana.
A laila ua pane ʻo Apple me kahi hoʻokolokolo ʻehā mahina o 22 mau hale hana like ʻole a ʻaʻole i loaʻa kahi hōʻike e pili ana i ka huina o 500 mau limahana o kēia mau hale hana i kekahi ala e hoʻoweliweli ʻia e benzene a i ʻole n-hexane. ʻEhā o kēia mau hale hana i hōʻike i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā "nui e ʻae ʻia" o kēia mau mea, a ma nā hale hana he 000 i koe, ʻaʻohe mea i ʻōlelo ʻia ʻaʻohe ʻike o nā kemika weliweli.
Ua pāpā naʻe ʻo Apple i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka benzene a me ka n-hexane i ka hana ʻana i kekahi o kāna mau huahana, ʻo ia hoʻi nā iPhones, iPads, Macs, iPods a me nā mea pono a pau. Eia kekahi, pono nā hale hana e hoʻopaʻa i nā mana a hoʻāʻo i nā mea i hoʻohana ʻia no ka hele ʻana o nā mea ʻelua i hoʻopaʻi ʻia. Ma kēia ʻano, makemake ʻo Apple e pale i nā mea pōʻino mai ke komo ʻana i loko o nā mea kumu a i ʻole nā ʻāpana ma mua o ko lākou komo ʻana i nā hale hana nui.
Ua haʻi aku ʻo Lisa Jackson, ke poʻo o Apple no ka ʻoihana kaiapuni, i nā mea nūhou e makemake ʻo ia e hoʻoponopono i nā hopohopo āpau a hoʻopau i nā mea hoʻoweliweli kemika. "Manaʻo mākou he mea koʻikoʻi loa mākou e alakaʻi a nānā i ka wā e hiki mai ana ma o ka hoʻāʻo ʻana e hoʻohana i nā kemika ʻōmaʻomaʻo," wahi a Jackson.
ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole benzene a i ʻole n-hexane nā mea i hoʻohana wale ʻia i nā kaʻina hana a Apple. Ke kū nei nā ʻoihana ʻenehana nui a pau i ka hoʻohewa like ʻana mai nā mea hana kaiapuni. Hiki ke loaʻa nā benzene liʻiliʻi, no ka laʻana, i loko o ka petrol, cigakeke, pena a i ʻole nā glues.
CLASSIC-EPL i pāpā ʻia akā e ʻae ʻo ia-makemake maoli e hoʻomaʻemaʻe loa i ka lehulehu.
