China #environmental Regulations

Views: 523
The CEO of the Schaeffler Chinal,
. . . pleaded with authorities to reverse the closure of a key supplier,
. . . due to environmental violations.

He claimed it could take
. . . 3 months to replace the supplier, leaving
. . . 49 automobile producers in China without key parts, preventing
. . . 3 million vehicles being built, with an estimated economic impact of over,
. . . 43 billion US dollars.

The response of the authorities was operating illegally, and
. . . so the authorities cut their power and water,  and
. . . demanded the company dismantle production facilities,
. . . to ensure that the plant could not return to illegal operations.

In the wake of this high-profile case,
. . . the sustainability community has learned,
. . . that the incident is not a one-off,
. . . but does represent a "new era" of balance,
. . . in the struggle between economic growth, and
. . . environmental quality.
