品質眾生相(219-220): 環境修復成本;Fitbit recalls Force smart band


品質眾生相(220):
中國GDP中重複計算入的環境修復成本。

中国国资委研究员罗天昊:中国在GDP统计中忽略了很多因素。一些污染严重的地方,靠牺牲环境制造了GDP,同时又把治理污染的投资计入GDP。如果采用“绿色GDP”计算方法,中国经济总量应比现在少。

Fitbit recalls Force smart band following skin irritation complaints


Fitbit is recalling its Fitbit Force smart fitness wristband following skin irritation reports from various users, after initially offering replacement devices or refunds to those people affected by the unexpected skin rashes. The company will reimburse buyers, and plans to release a new Force model that will hopefully not cause similar side effects from sustained wear, TechCrunch reports.
“From the beginning, we’ve taken this matter very seriously. We hired independent labs and medical experts to conduct a thorough investigation, and have now learned enough to take further action. The materials used in Force are commonly found in many consumer products, and affected users are likely experiencing an allergic reaction to these materials,” Fitbit said.
According to Fitbit CEO James Park only 1.7% of users have been reported skin irritation uses, with an independent study finding that the problem is allergic contact dermatitis that may have resulted from contact with “either trace amounts of nickel or with strap materials/glue used in the product construction.
Affected users can send in their device after filling out a form, and the company will then send in the following two to six weeks a physical check for the total cost of the device.
It’s not clear yet when the new Fitbit Force device will be available for purchase.
