The European Commission is offering up a voluntary scheme [on conflict minerals] - meaning most companies won’t even have to abide by it. Plus, it only covers a paltry 0.05% of European companies involved in the trade. It is unlikely to have any significant impact on the trade in conflict minerals. You still won’t know if the companies selling your favourite purchases are acting responsibly.Parliamentarians, alongside our governments, must overhaul the law in order to change the way companies source natural resources from conflict-affected areas. First and foremost, it needs to be binding. But it also needs to cover enough companies to be meaningful.Join our campaign and tell your MEP that now is the time to break the link between conflict minerals and our favourite consumer goods. The time to act is now.
