Today I chose to talk about the company Disney. Disney would be in the movie media sector but also in the music sector. Disney is a prime example of horizontal integration because of how many smaller companies they own. So many of the media outlets we use everyday are owned by Disney and we aren't even aware.

You can set your iphone so that at a certain t...

Before the apple watch became popular, the Fitbit was very popular with active people and even normal people. Personally, I would never decribe myself as a athletic person but I love my fitbit. I can know when I've hit over 10,000 steps which, during marching band season is almost everyday. With a fitbit you can also keep track of your sleep, track your food and water and even use the app as a period tracker (which comes in very handy). Because I'm such a fan of the device and use it everyday, I decided to look up the companies environmental standards/ impact. According to the  Fitbit website  the company requires their suppliers to meet environmental standards set in several rules they have set. They require the suppliers to put out as little waste as possible or eliminate waste by modifying produdction, handle and store chemicals in a way that won't be harmful, use a water system that conserves water and several others. Now that is just what fitbit says they do on their w...
