Co-op America’s Guide to Ending Sweatshops
This report from Co-op America takes a look at the problem with sweatshops and what normal people can do about it. The report also presents alternatives to buying clothes and products from mainstream suppliers (most of whom source from sweatshops), such as buying from local vendors or sweat-free/union-made labels like No Sweat Apparel.
Naturally, Wal-Mart is featured as a prominent sweatshop user since their extensive and convoluted supply chain is everywhere. As Co-op America notes, "Wal-Mart is so huge, and sources so widely across the globe, that we could fill this whole magazine with the company’s alleged and documented sweatshop abuses."
