Wal-Mart, Green, China - Financial Times

An interesting article about the greening of Wal-Mart.

Excerpt:

In January, Mr Scott told an annual meeting of Wal-Mart managers that the company would work with the Chinese government and other groups “to make sure suppliers comply with Chinese environmental laws and regulations” and would set up a “mechanism” to monitor performance. Mr Scott has said he hopes to see significant results in China in three to five years. While he said Wal-Mart would hope to be part of an industry-wide effort, the retailer would move on its own if necessary.
