Especially after the opening of Disney Park in Shanghai this year, coco also launched a limited edition Mickey Mouse leather product.

However, the environmental protection research center of the public environmental research center (IPE) has found that Disney's commitment to environmental protection is nothing more than a "green, beautiful fairy tale".

IPE revealed to reporters today that they found that there were environmental violations in the presence of suspected suppliers in China.

In this regard, in February and August 11th of this year, IPE went to the two letter to Mei Di Yang Group.

Although Disney replied to the mail, he had no substance.

According to IPE, in a report released in July, American financial analyst Baird pointed out that light luxury brand is winning the hearts of consumers, and behind this is the family entertainment giant Disney.

"With the opening of the Disney Park in Shanghai, the company announced the launch of the limited edition of Mickey Mouse chrome tanning leather products in June 17th."

IPE pointed out that the environmental performance of the two US brands in China attracted the attention of environmental protection organizations.

According to IPE, the company's sustainability has always been part of its business development.

In the 2015 report on sustainable development, he said that the company would select suppliers for environmental compliance, and hoped that irregularities of processing plants could take timely measures to reduce the environmental load caused by industrial waste water and waste.

The medi group in Changshu is called the supplier of the company on the official website.

The environmental protection organization found that the subordinate enterprises of the enterprise had 4 illegal records.

Respectively, in 2010, Changshu Mei Di Yang Leather Co., Ltd. fined 100 thousand yuan for discharging pollutants from private pipes, and in 2013, Mei Di Yang (Sihong).

Limited company wastewater discharge outlet biochemical oxygen demand exceeded 8.7 times; last year, Sihong County Industrial Park to carry out environmental protection special inspection, to Mei Di Yang and other 24 enterprises environmental violations fined 700 thousand yuan.

"Although Coach repeatedly emphasizes that its suppliers agree with the brand's environmental commitment, it has always avoided the challenge of supply chain pollution in practice."

IPE said that as early as February this year, IPE sent a letter to Cox to inform the environmental protection organization of the supply chain pollution problem found in the research, hoping to confirm and respond to the brand, but has not received any reply so far.

In August 11th, IPE sent a letter to the company on the above regulatory record, hoping to confirm whether the violating enterprise was its supplier, but still did not receive any reply.

"Disney's commitment to the environment is even more significant than".

IPE said that on his official website, Disney put forward "a promise to the earth", claiming that he has been committed to making rational use of resources and protecting the earth's environment.

At the same time, on the official website of the newly opened Disney resort in Shanghai, Disney also put forward "hope to become a responsible global citizen and environment-friendly model", "promise to make rational use of resources and protect the earth's environment", and declared that "comply with the requirements of local environmental regulations and strive for better in many ways".

"Companies actively identify, assess and understand the direct and indirect impacts of daily operations on the environment, and implement innovative and practical solutions to mitigate the impact".

"The Edward footwear industry is also a suspected supplier of Disney, whose company in Shandong was fined 200 thousand yuan in June this year because of excessive pollution discharge."

To this end, in August 11th, IPE sent Disney an e-mail suspected of exceeding the standard discharge of leather, and Disney replied second days later, saying that "mail will be pmitted to the relevant colleagues and discussed in this regard, thank you."

According to IPE, Disney has also responded passively to the pollution of his supply chain, but there are few practical follow-up actions.

"The response to this format can not be questioned, but how long will it last 4 years?" IPE questioned, "is Disney's environmental commitment a mere green fairy tale?"
