Levi's 'Detox' Action in Canada

Greenpeace activists outside a Levi's store in Toronto stage a street theatre performance as part of a series of Greenpeace activities held in over 80 cities worldwide, demanding that Levi’s commits to eliminating the use of all hazardous chemicals throughout its supply chain. The activists dressed as Levi's mannequins wear labels around their neck with a product warning stating that "Levi's clothing items have been found to contain hazardous chemicals". Greenpeace’s investigatory report, “Toxic Threads: Under Wraps”, exposes dumping of industrial wastewater containing toxic and hazardous chemicals from two of Mexico’s biggest textile manufacturing facilities with links to brands including Levi’s.
