Activists decorated store windows with giant images of forest destruction and toxic pollution, and the invitation to be part of the solution. The brands visiting had one thing in common, besides decades of setting trends, they all ranked lowest in a recent Greenpeace survey of environmental policies for the world's leading fashion houses.Related Collections:Photos of 2013 in USA (All Photographers)
