Alright, so then we still arrive at what constitutes a requirement to say "yes our products contain the element lead"? Is it 100 parts per million? Note, this is the amount allowed for inks for printing as an example. If yes, at what parts per million would Apple or any other manufacturer be required to state such? Also what manufacturers do report and remove lead from their products that are in the same space as Apple? What cost are we willing as consumers to bear to enable this yes response? If it ends up meaning a phone is 10 000 dollars do you still believe this to be reasonable? http://www.cpsc.gov/en/Business--Manufacturing/Business-Educ... I'm more of the opinion the general public should educate themselves on the allowed lead content and not Apple or any other company. |

How's this for a requirement to say 'yes our products contain the element lead'.. when you ask yourself the question 'Do [company name] products contain lead?' on your own website attempting to be transparent about environmental efforts. The company can then go on to put whatever qualifying content they'd like, such as the content you're linking to.
Keep in mind I've said when they are attempting to be transparent. That may not be the goal for http://www.apple.com/environment/answers/
