Volkswagen is now hoping to fix their tarnished reputation and are working towards environmental concious cars. ]]> 2018-04-30 02:05:04 UTC https://padlet.com/251027521013h/mr1h8sj2gzm4/wish/256377390 https://padlet.com/251027521013h/mr1h8sj2gzm4/wish/256378267 Volkswagen has been accused of many different illegal things involving their cars. Most of which they have denied. They have now admitted that they have put a software in nearly 482,000 cars that can detect when the amissions is being tested and can change the results accordingly. ]]> 2018-04-30 02:10:12 UTC https://padlet.com/251027521013h/mr1h8sj2gzm4/wish/256378267 https://padlet.com/251027521013h/mr1h8sj2gzm4/wish/256379402 Volkswagen put monkeys in a concealed room and distracted them with cartoons while the diesel emissions from a car were put into the same room. They say that they were testing whether the emissions were toxic or not. They are now in legal trouble and those who were involved will be prosecuted to the proper extent. ]]> 2018-04-30 02:16:03 UTC https://padlet.com/251027521013h/mr1h8sj2gzm4/wish/256379402 251027521013h https://padlet.com/251027521013h/mr1h8sj2gzm4/wish/256467661 1. Volkswagen should continue to strive for the best ways to make their cars better. Volkswagen should not have to complete illegal activities in order to get approval from government standards. 
2. Recognize that VW has changed irreparably. The company employees 600,000 people in Europe alone. VW needs to put new leadership rolls, as a lot of people rely on this job. A leader would not do illegal things, and would look out best for the company and its employees.
3. VW needs to show how that these problems will never happen again. The next step in crisis management is to prove to customers, and the authorities, that a scandal like this will never happen again. ]]> 2018-04-30 12:16:10 UTC https://padlet.com/251027521013h/mr1h8sj2gzm4/wish/256467661 251027521013h https://padlet.com/251027521013h/mr1h8sj2gzm4/wish/256483404 Volkswagen states that thy want to create environmentally friendly cars. To test this claim, they put monkeys into an air tight chamber and pumped diesel fumes into the chamber while the monkeys were distracted with cartoons. By testing on animals, they are violating their statement of being "environmentally safe". Of course animal testing goes back on their goal to be clean, and demonstrates their bad corporate citizenship and how they're punishing the planet. 

However, despite these events, Volkswagen as taken steps in order to "make-up" for their previous mistakes. Volkswagen has committed to spending $54 billion over the next 4years, developing technology that will reduce traffic congestion and pollution.

In summary, Volkswagen claims they are environmentally friendly and they invest their time to make their cars better for our planet. But, when Volkswagen is investigated, several cases of fraudulant activity comes up as results. If Volkswagen has lied to the public and hid events such as animal abuse, what else have they been hiding from the public?
