    Outsourced Responsibility? Response to Fatal Explosion by Chemical Giants

    On March 21, 2019, a major explosion occurred at the Jiangsu Tianjiayi Chemical Co., Ltd. Publicly available safety and environmental violation records suggest that JTC was an accident waiting to happen. IPE contacted four chemical companies who appeared from public records to be customers of JTC – DowDupont, BASF, Clariant, and Merck. However, these chemical giants are not trying to participate in the multi-stakeholder efforts; instead, they are still trying to shy away from their responsibilities.

    Supplier Illegally Discharged Heavy Metals: Is the Starbucks you’re drinking truly environmental?

    In August 2018, environmental groups conducted an investigation on environmental pollution in Starbucks cup supply chains. They sent a letter to inquire as to whether Starbucks knew of the environmental violations of its straw cup and accompanying cup suppliers, and to advocate for rectification and public explanation. To date, Starbucks has yet to respond. A cup might seem the same, one that comes from clean production versus one whose production pollutes the environment, but their impact on health and the environment may be vastly different. We hope that Starbucks can make a meaningful change to provide consumers with truly green products.
