A woman holds a placard reading 'Textile industry = 2nd most polluting industry'. Members of XR Toulouse (Extinction Rebellion) organized a protest in front of a pop-up SHEIN shop. The chinese brand SHEIN opened a pop-up store in Toulouse only for 4 days. XR wanted to raise awareness about water consumption and waste, over consumption of ressources, workers' conditions and abuse of human rights in China. They are against fast fashion as it's a waste of natural ressources. Toulouse. France. May 28th 2022. (Photo by Alain Pitton/NurPhoto via Getty Images)
