  • Many hazardous chemicals can also be transported in our oceans, atmosphere and food chains and accumulate in places far away from their original source. They have been found to build up in the bodies of animals including birds, fish, whales, polar bears and even human breast milk. The problem and the solution are therefore not only a cause of local concern. This is a truly global issue.

      Again, this is aimed at readers who are far away from where this problem is occurring. It brings the issue close to home and hopefully motivates the reader to action

  • Of these brand owners, one group stood out in particular as the most likely champions of a toxic-free future - the world’s largest sports brands. Not only are these brands self-proclaimed leaders and innovators, but they have the size and influence to work with their suppliers to begin bringing about real change on the ground and eliminate the use and release of these hazardous chemicals.

      This rhetoric is aimed at Nike and Adidas. Greenpeace uses irony by highlighting these companies' slogans.

      Greenpeace has gone to these companies' websites and selected quotes which express their commitment to environmentally friendly practices. This shows the hypocracy of these companies as they advertise green initiatives while they really do not know or control where their supplies come from.

      This photo and its caption have a lot of impact on the reader. The caption describes discoloured water which can be seen in the collector's sample bottle. Futhermore, the photo shows an odd yellow sludge/waste coming out for the pipe. In the background of the photo, you can see the turbid river water and smoggy air. What is particularily effective is the use of hyperbole. The odd looking sludge is the largest and central object in the photo, dwarfing the person standing next to it.

      another aspect of visual rhetoric that is used in this photo is accent. Compared to the bleak and grey background, the yellow sludge jumps out from the photo
  • At 6:00pm in the evening, a pipe on the north side of the Youngor International Garments City factory dumps large quantities of foul smelling waste water into the river

      Photo # 11 in the slide is particularily effective because the subject of the photo is covering his mouth and nose with his hand while looking down at the discoloured redish purple water coming out of the discharge pipe. When we read the caption, we find that he is doing this due to the terrible stench of the water. Both the caption and the subject's reaction in the photo make the experience more real for the reader as we can imagine the experience as if we were there.
  • Wastewater is intended to be treated at the treatment plant.

      Greenpeace uses irony in the photo and its caption. We see settling ponds of water in a textile factory and learn in the caption that it is supposed to be treated. The irony is that this is for show was chemical analysis of water shows that the water is not treated
