Global Issue Research


Tell me about some interesting things you have learned about your global issue so far. What have you learned that you didn't know before? Include a couple images from the internet if possible. (Make sure to cite images that are not your own.)

It has been very interesting researching Sweatshops. Sweatshops are work environments that have three major characteristics—long hours, low pay, and unsafe or unhealthy working conditions. I have found they do not exist only in foreign countries but in the United States as well. I was surprised to find some of the most popular companies own and operate sweatshops. Such examples include Apple, Nike, and Walmart.
