Oh no they din’t. According to this press release from the makers of Barbie, a new line of accessories features scraps from Barbie’s other outfits for a patchwork look that says, “Barbie cares about the environment.” It’s called Barbie Bcause. Because Barbie is too stupid to know how to spell two syllable words.

“Barbie is always a reflection of current cultural trends and issues, and girls are increasingly aware of making a green statement,” said Richard Dickson, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Media and Entertainment, Worldwide, Mattel Brands. “Barbie BCause is for eco-conscious girls who believe that being environmentally-friendly is the right thing to do, and we are thrilled to give extra meaning and extra style to what was once just extra Barbie doll fabric.”

Thank God! It’s going to save the planet! Thanks to Salon’s Broadsheet for the tip.
