The new iPhone Shuffle doesn’t have this issue.

Just in case anyone here is interested in facts, rather than ranting. We released a report about toxic chemicals in the iPhone.

A completely separate group, Centre for Environmental Health, notified Apple of a possible lawsuit based on this report in California.

This will not be “blocking the arrival of iPhone in Europe” as you claim.

For a person of ANY religion, a life dedicated to saving others definitely “sounds pretty good”. But such a person usually also believe that the end DOES NOT justify the means.

Just my 2 cents…

I love Greenpeace's intent, but I hate the way they go about things. They target companies that are in the public eye to get themselves in the news. That's plainly obvious if you look at their past.

They also unfairly target single companies instead of entire industries. Apple follows regulations like all of the other companies out there. Greenpeace chooses to target Apple and the iPhone because its the hottest thing out there at the moment. And that gets Greenpeace press.

There are plenty of other green organizations out there who do incredibly great things without the need to be in the public eye at all times. Greenpeace seems to think if people aren't talking about them, they aren't being effective. They have their heads in the wrong place. They will lose this lawsuit, but they know that going in. They just wanted people to talk about them. And we are.

Sorry, but I have no respect for Greenpeace whatsoever. I’m all for making this world a better place, and protecting the environment, but threats and bullying are NOT the way of going about it. Greenpeace may be green, but it’s certainly not peaceful.

Do not insult NGOs like GreenPeace. They are trying to save lives. As a Christian, that sounds pretty good to me.

this is a little strong even for you. I don’t think greenpeace is the most subtle an honest green compay in the world. And god knows they love theatrics. But I would be careful throwing around neo Nazi references just for the sake of a laugh. If there is something toxic in our new little toy I’m happy that somebody is there to say it. Let’s all get a little perspective here. I love my iPhone too but I’d like to hear all the facts before I start calling up holocaust images to make a point.
