Five Greenpeace climbers evaded security and scaled a building at the centre of one of London’s busiest areas early this morning before unveiling the huge billboard-style banner, which has a large picture of Ken, Barbie’s on-off boyfriend, and reads: ‘Barbie, You’re Dumped. Girls That Threaten Furry Animals Make Me Sick.’
The guerrilla tactic follows revelations that the packaging for Barbie, the most famous toy in the world, is produced using pulp from the rainforests of Indonesia, home to endangered species such as the Sumatran tiger.
