Sign our pledge for a worldwide ban on animal testing for cosmetics online or at The Body Shop!
21/05/2012
The Cruelty Free International global pledge to ban animal testing for cosmetics will be launched today at over 300 The Body Shop stores in the UK, and will roll out over the coming weeks and months at The Body Shop stores in 65 countries across the world! It is the largest and most ambitious campaign ever to seek a global ban on the use of animals to test cosmetics. The Body Shop customers in countries including the USA, Australia, South Africa, Hong Kong, India, Thailand, Mexico and Saudi Arabia will have the opportunity to sign a pledge in-store.
In addition to engaging with the estimated 275 million people a year who visit The Body Shop stores, Cruelty Free International will also be linking to The Body Shop websites, which host millions of customers annually.
There is no worldwide ban on animal testing for cosmetics. Despite progress with some countries and companies, over 80% of the world still allows animals to be used in cruel experiments. Cruelty Free International, the first organisation and global campaign dedicated to ending cosmetics testing on animals throughout the world, was launched by the BUAV on March 17th with the support of Ricky Gervais, Ambassador of the new organisation.
Please join us as we call upon governments for a ban on animal testing for cosmetics in every country around the world!
Get active! Sign the petition in your local The Body Shop store or online, and remember to spread the word.
The Cruelty Free International pledge is currently available in all The Body Shop stores in the UK and online at www.crueltyfreeinternational.org
