Eco friendly fashion (ways to help the environment)


  • Fast fashion is harming the environment. Please help make more sustainable choices when buying clothing.

    -It takes around 7,000 liters of water to produce one single pair of jeans.
    -Polyester is one of the most harmful fabrics for the environment. It's not biodegradable and takes about 20-200 years to decompose.
    Also uses harmful chemicals such as carcinogens. When these chemicals go into air and water it is damaging to the environment.

    H&M Recycle clothes:

    Isn't that amazing for the environment? Also they don't have to be fit to wear anymore. Just hand them into the cash desk.]
