After Dream Houses, Corvettes and a rather limp boyfriend, Barbie’s latest accessory is a genre-busting chainsaw.
Hundreds of Barbies have been hidden throughout the UK by Greenpeace as they launch their new campaign to stop manufacturers Mattel using material from the Indonesian rainforest in the doll’s packaging.
Greenpeace’s James Woolley says Mattel are putting the survival of orang-utans and Sumatran tigers at risk, while more than 150,000 Greenpeace supporters have already emailed Mattel demanding they stop.
And to help highlight the cause, Greenpeace volunteers have been hiding Barbie dolls – complete with pink chainsaw – around the UK.
Members of the public are invited to visit a map on Greenpeace’s website to locate a Barbie near them, find the doll and then register their find to get involved.
