In 2017, Lvse Jiangnan received complaints from a number of residents in Danyang, Jiangsu. The residents complained that enterprises in Daya Wood Industrial Park in Danyang Economic Development Zone gave off pollution during the production of Power Dekor floorboards, affecting the livelihoods of the neighboring residents. In 2018, environmental group Lvse Jiangnan and IPE conducted an investigation into the environmental pollution issues caused by the production of Power Dekor floorboards.

IPE began conducting an environmental impact analysis on beer supply chains at the end of 2017. The investigation revealed that wastewater from breweries and air emissions from glass factories often exceeds emissions standards, including at subsidiaries and suspected suppliers to Snow, Tsingtao, Yanjing, AbInBev and Calsberg. The beer market is currently undergoing a massive transformation. To become winners in the high-end market, big brands should implement green supply chain management and provide green products to consumers.

Beginning in 2016, shared bikes have emerged to decorate many Chinese cities. As a form of IT-based innovative transportation, shared bikes contribute to solving problems with 'last kilometer' traffic, allowing the public to enjoy a more convenient and low-carbon commute. However, the large-scale operation and damage of shared bike schemes have also brought along energy consumption and pollution emissions, resulting in hidden environmental concerns.

In early November 2017, environmental group Lvse Jiangnan and IPE conducted an investigation on Leoch Battery (Jiangsu) Corp, China's largest exporter of lead-acid batteries. We called for the local environmental protection bureau to undertake a follow-up investigation and for Leoch Battery to issue a public explanation on their suspected illegal dumping of wastewater containing lead, which was discovered by Lvse Jiangnan.

In July 2017, IPE conducted an investigation into supply chain pollution in China's dairy industry. The investigation revealed that many domestic and international brands' subsidiary dairy farms and factories have environmental violations relating to fecal and sewage treatment and other environmental matters, but most dairy brands have yet to take responsibility to publicly respond to environmental groups. We hope dairy brands will promote environmental compliance and establish a green dairy supply chain.

In March 2017, IPE began conducting an investigation into pollution along P&G's supply chain in China. It was discovered that a number of the brand's suspected suppliers from the phosphorus chemical industry have exhaust and wastewater over-emissions and procedural violations. We hope that aside from reminding the public to take precautions against smog, P&G can proactively push suppliers in China to comply with environmental laws and regulations.

In October 2016, IPE and Lvse Jiangnan continued their pollution investigation into Toyota Motor's supply chain in China, discovering that a number of automotive component suppliers belonging to Toyota Group have environmental violation records. Moreover, Toyota Motor's wheel hub supplier fails to properly store and treat its industrial solid waste and hazardous waste. In response to these violations, Toyota China breaks the silence with a response that it is currently checking these claims.
