Why This Boycott?
The Pollution Crisis
Bangladesh's rivers are dying. Industrial pollution is the primary culprit.
Worst Offenders
- Hazaribagh tanneries (relocated but still polluting)
- Textile dyeing units in Savar and Gazipur
- Chemical factories near Buriganga River
- Fish processing units dumping waste
Products to Avoid
- Leather goods from non-certified tanneries
- Garments without environmental certifications
- Fish from polluted waters
Certified Alternatives
Look for:
- Leather Working Group certification
- OEKO-TEX certification
- Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals (ZDHC)
