Greenpeace activists install a group of mannequins around a large waste water discharge pipe belonging to the Linjiang Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP), in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou. The mannequins all look out towards the gushing effluent from the pipe mouth, 'witnessing' the Qiantang River pollution through live webcams incased in their heads.

The Greenpeace investigatory report; "Toxic Threads: Putting Pollution on Parade" released 4th December 2012, revealed that effluent from the Linjiang WWTP contained various toxic chemicals including carcinogens. The report also named the textile industry an outstanding source of pollution in coastal Zhejiang Province which assumes more than a third of China’s dying and printing capacity and houses suppliers of global fashion brands such as Levi’s and Calvin Klein.
