Greenpeace - LEGO - SHELL
Enviado: 06 jul 2014, 00:06
Há algum tempo que a Greenpeace (GP) está em 'guerra' contra a SHELL e o seu desejo de perfurar o árctico à procura de petróleo.
Várias tentativas de chamada de atenção já foram feitas pela organização defensora do meio ambiente.
Esta acção no Grand Prix de Formula 1 belga no ano passado é um dos exemplos:
Infelizmente, parece que o 'vale tudo' está na ordem do dia e a organização decidiu envolver a LEGO no meio disto tudo.
Simplesmente porque a LEGO tem um relacionamento com a SHELL; e a Greenpeace quer ver o elo cortado.

A LEGO foi tomada refém nesta situação e está numa posição delicada.
O CEO da LEGO, Jørgen Vig Knudstorp, já emitiu um comunicado acerca da posição da empresa.

[quote="Jørgen Vig Knudstorp"]Jørgen Vig Knudstorp, CEO of the LEGO Group, comments on the Greenpeace campaign using the LEGO® brand to target Shell.
The LEGO Group operates in a responsible manner and continually strives to live up to the motto of the company since 1932: “Only the best is good enough”.
We are determined to leave a positive impact on society and the planet that children will inherit. Our unique contribution is through inspiring and developing children by delivering creative play experiences all over the world.
A co-promotion contract like the one with Shell is one of many ways we are able to bring LEGO® bricks into the hands of more children.
We welcome and are inspired by all relevant input we receive from fans, children, parents, NGOs and other stakeholders. They have high expectations to the way we operate. So do we.
The Greenpeace campaign focuses on how Shell operates in a specific part of the world. We firmly believe that this matter must be handled between Shell and Greenpeace. We are saddened when the LEGO brand is used as a tool in any dispute between organisations.
We expect that Shell lives up to their responsibilities wherever they operate and take appropriate action to any potential claims should this not be the case. I would like to clarify that we intend to live up to the long term contract with Shell, which we entered into in 2011.
We will continue to live our motto of “only the best is good enough” and deliver creative and inspiring LEGO play experiences to children all over the world.

Gostava de saber qual a vossa opinião sobre o assunto.
A LEGO deve cortar o relacionamento com a SHELL?
A LEGO não deve ceder às pressões?
