Dove Onslaught(er)

Talk to Dove before they destroy Paradise Forests:


UPDATE: Thanks to the staggering public support for our international Dove campaign in April 2008, Unilever has now agreed to play their part in saving the Paradise Forests of South East Asia. As the biggest single buyer of palm oil in the world, Unilever has a special responsibility to help clean up the industry that's behind so much forest destruction.

They have agreed to support the call by Greenpeace for an immediate moratorium on deforestation for palm oil plantations. They have also agreed to urgently contact other major companies calling on them to support the moratorium.

This is the first success in a broader campaign to secure real change on the ground in South East Asia -- to stop the palm oil industry from destroying the Paradise Forests. Greenpeace campaigners will work with Unilever for th next six months (starting May 2008) to bring together a major coalition of companies to make the moratorium a reality. We will see at the end of this period how things are progressing and if we need to change our campaign approach.


About the music:
The song's called "There They Go". It was made specifically for the Greenpeace video by a Czech band called Ohm Square.

I support Greenpeace and the protection of rainforests, but Dove is one of the only companies doing any good in the beauty industry at the moment. Their ads challenging the exploitation of women are brilliant. I hope they stop using unsustainable palm oil, but why not pick on a company that is really bad... like L'Oreal. Their list of unethical practises makes everyone else pale into insignificance.

Greenpeace doesn't wants to give Unilever a bad name, they just want to show that what Unilever is doing isn't right, and that Unilever can do it on another way.

And why the fuck do you put a little girl in this video?! What is this? So for example...In about 2 weeks i'm gonna say that axe is made from shit from a cow that is hurting our GreenHouse effect? What the fuck is this?

this clip is actually a parody on the Dove clip on youtube. That is why they put a little girl in this video. ;)
