Apple quits the US Chamber of Commerce

Did you hear this story about Apple quitting the US Chamber of Commerce? I guess it goes back to a statement that the USCOC made pretty much denying global warming and giving a position against any measures to counter it. Apple thought that this position was denying reality and quit in protest. A few other large companies have also quit the USCOC for the same reason including Nike and a few others. I don't think this made big news. I wonder how much a company pays in dues each year.

Good question! I don't know much about that body, but Apple is really pushing a green image. I admit I'm impressed with the lengths they have gone to to make their products more eco friendly!
