The Environmental Justice Foundation has opened a pop-up shop in Soho to sell clothing similar to that pictured above. The Foundation works to empower people affected by environmental abuses, and to find ways to prevent future abuses. The shop is part of the Pick Your Cotton Carefully campaign.
"Over two thirds of the world’s cotton is grown in developing countries and the former Soviet Union. Valued at over $32 billion every year, global cotton production should be improving lives. But this "white gold" too often brings misery.
EJF is committed to eradicating child labour and the deadliest pesticides from cotton production and promoting organic alternatives."
When - It opened on 4th August - no word on when it will close
Where - 63 Broadwick Street, London, W1F 9QT
