"Think globally act locally! The torch is shining on the top of Cengio's factory that killed many workers by its chemical products: let's fight for labour rights all over the world! I speak in the name of my grandfathers who worked hard in the factory. I love you and I'm not going to forget! " Micol Arena, Cengio (Italy) www.catchtheflame.org , 10.51 am Thursday February 18
www.catchtheflame.org contains a virtual torch relay with a message. The message is: make sure that products that use the Olympic logo are made under fair conditions. Through Internet, Bluetooth, and text messaging a virtual Torch Relay will travel around the digital world arriving in Beijing on May 1st. The action is an initiative of www.fairplay2008.org
Merchandising the Olympic logo is a billion dollar business under the control of the IOC. There are many cases of exploitation and abuse in this industry, such as prolonged mandatory overtime, income far below minimum wage and bans on forming labor unions. The IOC can make sure that the people making these products are being treated with respect for their basic workers rights and should take responsibility in doing so.
