🗣 “This is serious.” Happy to hear that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is aligned with the frontline by moving the operationalizing of a #JustTransition. It’s time. Learn what we mean when we say that: bit.ly/2S34yFw ⏰

I hope that the Green New Deal includes regulations on the #fastfashion industry. Fast Fashion needs to be stopped or change in order to combat climate change because of the significant environmental impact. Does anyone know if the Green New Deal addresses fast fashion?

#Fastfashion is harmful to humans making the clothing. This is an ethical and environmental issue. It is sad that this type of news is common for this industry. Let's do something to change this.

Remember that even though you can not see the person who makes clothing, they are valuable. And fashion should be seen as valuable too. Don't give into the disposable mindset that #fastfashion creates.

When I tell people I am researching #fastfashion they ask me two questions. 1.) What is fast fashion? And 2.) Why does it matter? These are just a few reasons why. And if you want to learn more you should watch True Cost Movie on Netflix.

Incinerating #fastfashion dead stock leads to increased greenhouse gas emissions. Which only contributes more to global climate change.

"In 2018 alone, the brand collected over 3.4 million pounds of unwanted textiles in the U.S." Does this really help solve #fastfashion? Where do the clothes go once collected? refinery29.com/amp/en-us/hm-s…

I wouldn't either, but we don't see our clothing has something that has real value anymore. This is the attitude the #fastfashion industry wants us to have and keep.

My #fastfahion research is on the dyeing process of blue jeans and the wastewater disposal process. It takes a lot of water to make blue jeans.

#fastfashion is extremely wasteful. Consumers don't think of clothing as valuable anymore. It is now disposable. The picture below helps put this into perspective.
