zara-proteste

A French activist of Greenpeace International NGO wears a mask reading “Detox Time” during a demonstration in front of a fashion store “Zara”, on November 24, 2012 in Nice, southeastern France, to protest against hazardous chemicals in clothing. Greenpeace is campaigning to stop industry poisoning waterways around the world with hazardous, persistent and hormone-disrupting chemicals. The “Greenpeace Detox Campaign” launched in 2011 has exposed links between textile manufacturing facilities causing toxic water pollution in China, and many of the world’s top clothing brands.
