-Fast fashion Versus Sustainable fashion: What do we choose?
Fashion is all around us — in what we wear, what we browse, the trends we follow. But did you also know that the clothes we buy can have an impact on the planet and people’s lives?
-What Is Fast Fashion?
Fast fashion equals inexpensive, trendy clothing that’s produced super quickly. New styles are constantly coming into stores, and so we want to buy more and more
The problem?
These clothes aren’t intended to last.They consume a lot of water and rely on chemicals that are harmful to the environment.Occasionally, those types of clothes are made in factories under unfair conditions for workers.
What Is Sustainable Fashion?
Sustainable fashion is purchasing clothing that is good for the planet and fair for workers. which means:
Opting for clothes that are environmentally friendly in their production.Purchasing fewer, higher-quality clothes that last longer.Recycling or donating old clothes rather than tossing them.
Why Does It Matter?
Fast fashion is cheap, but it produces a lot of waste and pollution. It may seem like a no-brainer to buy store-made clothes for cheap, but sustainable fashion is an investment in the Earth and the workers’ well-being.
How Can You Help?
:Shop less, and before buying, think.
:Opt for secondhand or thrift store outfits.
:Care for your clothes so they last longer.
