Have you heard Ken and Barbie was broken up?

This video shared by my friend today, I was shocked and found it interesting. Let’s have a look on this video.



Ken was interviewed by Greenpeace and learned that Barbie's scandalous deforestation habit. He cannot accept it and broke up with her. Ken also staged a protest at Mattel headquarters in USA to announce to public that they were over.  


This video was created by Greenpeace. It is interesting, isn’t it? But it is not all about fun, but also deforestation. Greenpeace wants to tell Mattel, the manufacturer of Barbie, stop using paper packaging for wraping Barbie from Indonesia’s most notorious rainforest destroyer Asia Pulp and Paper (APP).


The rainforests in Indonesia are home to some of the last tiger, orabg-utans and elephants. APP destroyed the critical wildlife habitat and carbon-rich rainforests to make the throw away toy packaging. We do not have rights to destroy the rainforests because of the nice packaging. 

I hope Mattel stops using APP. Otherwise Ken won’t forgive Barbie, as same as the customers and me!!!!
