Corporate greed? It is us consumer who are part of the problem. If we would wonder how products can be ridiculously cheap, if we would ask shops if the supply chain of products is known, if we were willing to pay a little more for "fair trade" and similar concepts, and if we would exercise abdiction just occasionally, much would change!

Wow,so easy to point with a finger on others,what a public moralising campaign.Does the creator of this campaign have a smartphone,does he wear clothes,does he eat bananas or drink coffee?

You would rather have those people unemployed and starving to death. Great solution.

You can more certainly know the supply chain when you buy goods locally sourced and made. Many times this is not possible (like how many towns have a local iPhone plant?). But when it is possible, you should consider it. Of course, you'll have to live with the fact that now those child workers will have no food AND no job - just starvation and misery....but what's most important is that you feel better about you.

a lot of people are ignore about this. but this is so important.

Absolutely amazing. Very powerful

Atleast we can say we know where our products are being produced and know that despite people telling us we are sourcing our products a bit expensive, we can sleep well at night knowing we haven't squeezed anyone for extra margin and allowed everyone in the supply chain to be adequately compensated, even if our margins are lower as a result.

It's not the companies is the people that demand cheap clothes, if it's not for H&M the place would be taken by another company.

It's not just cheap stuff. Even high-end premium brands source their labor like this. For example, the Team USA uniforms for the 2012 Olympics were Ralph Lauren, but they were manufactured in China. Prada, Armani, etc, all do it, and sometimes they even lie on the labels-- eg the whole thing may be manufactured in China, but assembled together in Italy, which lets them claim it's 'Made in Italy'. So I mean it's all the same sick system. There needs to be laws in these countries protecting these workers, and laws preventing companies from being greedy like this. I'd pay more for something I knew was truly fair trade, but even that has its own set of problems. At the moment, it's 'buy a 100 dollar shirt made with cheap labor' vs 'buy a 20 dollar shirt made with cheap labor,' in the more expensive shirt, the only thing higher is the profit margins for the greedy company. =\

Next time don't buy cheap stuff as it is being over produced using cheap labour

Yeah it's a valid statement, but why did you photoshop it instead of actually printing & displaying them.
