	Dirty Disney revealed by hazardous chemicals in products \| Greenpeace International
		Disney is renowned for the strict conditions it places on the use, appearance and colours of the characters used on the clothes, but does little to control the production processes of the clothing manufacturers it licenses the use of these characters to.
		Disney staff arriving for work got a truly technicolour view of Mickey and Minnie in action and were also given leaflets explaining the potential damage their employers were wreaking upon children's health by continuing to sell toxic children's clothes.
		It seems Disney, which works so hard to promote its cute cuddly image, is perfectly happy to allow many parents to unwittingly clothe their children in products that contain nasty chemicals.

		Euro Disneyland's target of 11 million guests in the first year was met, but revenues did not roll in as had been planned.

		In addition prices for Euro Disney were set at a higher level than all other European theme parks and even at the Disney theme parks in the USA.
		Influencing factors were the high capital outlay required, Disney’s experience in the construction and the management of such parks and the high customer awareness because of a Disney brand.
		This assumption is proved by the fact that later on Euro Disney was only able to increase the guest attendance by a price reduction in connection with a segmentation of prices relating to seasons.
