Is fast fashion destroying our environment?

In this Our Changing Climate environmental video essay, I look at the environmental impact of fast fashion. Specifically, I look at how fast fashion impacts climate change through the production process of polyester and post-consumption through waste. As a result, stores like H&M, Uniqlo, and Zara have huge carbon footprints and negatively affect the environment.

Hey team!! Thanks for watching. What are some ways you've tried to avoid the fast fashion industry?
@MedlifeCrisis
@MedlifeCrisis 5 лет назад
Came here from the WCE Slack, really really impressive production quality and educational content. To answer your question - the ways I've tried to avoid the fast fashion industry is by being deeply unfashionable my whole life and buying clothes about once every 3 years lol

Repair, recycle, regift ;) My city has a pretty cool free shop at the autonomous centre, where I got three super nice t-shirts recently. Otherwise, flea markets! If stuff has holes I'll fix them with thread or some anarchist patches, but I guess that's an aesthetic not everyone appreciates :D For new clothes, there's a shop of an ethical brand here, that tries to really minimise their ecological impact. It's quite expensive, but also really high quality.

I watched "The True Cost" a few years back, which is a documentary about exactly this, plus the human rights issues. Seeing interviews with actual seamstresses talking about how they got beat up by their bosses for trying to unionise really changed my mind about fashion. I'd recommend this film to everyone.

I'm in highschool so these eco friendly brands are way too expensive for me and I still often buy at h&m (guilty). But I try to buy stuff in the sale section of more expensive stores, these brands are not much better than h&m have researchers found, but they do last a lot longer. This pair of jeans from a more high end kids store has lasted me more than four years of intensive use, just went to get a new pair for the next four years.

Try to buy clothing made of natural fibers (as they don’t shed microplastics in the wash) and buy only what you need, even if you have to get fast fashion. Ethical clothing can also become unethical when produced in abnormally high quantities. I think the biggest problem is that people just buy too much clothing. Natural fibers and only buying what you NEED, WHEN you need it is something we can all do today. And if you can afford to, buy from ethical companies.

/!\ Read this to make your school more eco friendly /!\ Please make your school organise a clothes trade. In my school we cleared a spot in the hall for people to drop their old clothes and pick 'new' ones. Then at the end of the week (we did this for climate week) we donated the leftover clothes to homeless shelters. The clothe industry is the 2nd most polluting industry in the world and second hand and trade are an important solution. Please try to do this in your school by proposing it to your environmental club, your students' house or even asking your principal. In my school, and especially in my section, we have a lot of ecologists and activists and we are therefore pretty aware of the issues with our environment. We organise a lot of things (#1pieceofrubbish, #FrydaysforFuture,park cleaning, trash art, gardening sessions, conferences and debates maybe a future school compost...) and still have a lot planned. Please if you have any other ideas of things we could do in that school club post them under this comment.

If you want to make a really good ethical choice, go buy older fabrics from second hand/thrift/charity stores. Jeans shouldn't last you 4 years. They should last two decades. They do last two decades when made well.

Please avoid poly at all costs. After a few washes it always pills and suffocates the body. Modal and bamboo feel amazing but thin out easily after a few wears. I still have my heavy weight cotton graduation tshirt that i still wear from grade school no worse for wear. Buy good quality materials that lasts.

Good that the video shows about the issues of clothing. I barely bought clothing on my own, but parents regularly buy me clothing to the point where my closet is always full. I always say that if your total clothing in your closet can't fit in a single 50 pound check in piece of luggage, you have too much clothing.

For years, I have been buying stuffs either from the 2nd hand retails or outlet stores. the main reason back then was the price, why should you buy something which has the same quality but 100% more expensive. but then I started working in the production of fast fashion industry, i can say that I've experienced and seen it all, the >60 hours of work weekly, the labours that are treated rather unfairly, the waste. i dont know about others but this job alone has caused me to have existential crisis daily, it also because of i got to see people around me to suffer from depression due to the pressure of having to produce high quality goods with the minimum budget the company could spend.

I still wear stuff I have since elementary school if I can lol. If you can still wear it keep wearing it. Look up how to stretch it out, pay a clothing repair service, donate wearable stuff that shrunk in the wash to the thrift store. You’re lucky if you live somewhere like the rural/suburban US where no one would care if you’re in a T shirt and shorts from 10 years ago. But I still wear my old clothes as room wear. It’s nice and comfy.

I'd rather spend more on fair trade, recycled or organic clothing, even if it means owning less. The clothing is better quality, so it lasts longer. Owning less means less to fold, less clutter, and it's easier deciding what to wear each day.

1) Most of the apparel products comes from developing countries such as China and Bangladesh. In these places wages are much lower compared to developed countries, regardless of the industry you work in. Therefore it's not always accurate to say these low wages are human right violations. However, this does not mean workers are always treated properly, it totally depends on the individual organizations. 2) Fast fashion is the problem here, not just cheap cloths. It's a good thing that people have access to cheaper clothing. The problem is that most people throw away their cloths and buy new ones, just to look fashionable.

Another issue with polyester is its poor quality. Although the material may take a very long time to biodegrade it doesn’t hold seams that well. Once a clothing item is ripped most people just throw it out. Therefore, once you start buying fast fashion it’s impossible to stop because you are constantly in need of new clothing. The best ways to avoid it all together is by buying products made out of cotton, or buying from higher quality stores. It may be more expensive, but in the long run you’ll spend less money. If you do get rid of clothes just because you don’t want them anymore, donate them or give them to someone.

I’m a Bangladeshi-American and more than anyone else, I realize how horrible fast fashion is for my people. Not only the fact that fast fashion is treating millions of workers in Bangladesh like slaves, but also the fact that Bangladesh is one of the top countries vulnerable to climate change. Even after being abused financially by fast fashion, we continue to suffer environmentally. If not for you, please do it for the hundreds of millions of people in Bangladesh and their history and culture of thousands of years. Please refrain from buying new clothes and adding to the problem. Please let’s create a movement to hold these companies accountable. please let’s consume less bc afterall, businesses are controlled by customers.

I remember, maybe back in 2019, that a Forever 21 store had closed in an area that I considered had overly priced clothing, and the price of their final sale items were phenomenal. My mother and grandma bought final sale pieces that were as low as $1. At the time, I regretted not spending time with them to catch that opportunity, and I remember feeling bad that Forever 21 had closed. After this revelation and journey that I've found out about fast fashion has now made me glad that Forever 21 did close in that area. I still have those $1 pieces that my mother handed down to me. While the price was quite the deal, I now know that the impact that fast fashion has on the environment, so not even $1 is worth it. But I do wonder, if a fast fashion brand isn't profiting off of their clothes, but are still putting a price tag to offset the loss of cash into making their clothes, is it more sustainable to purchase the clothing or to leave it in the hands of the fast fashion brand (where they might discard unsold clothing)?

Sweaters and polos are built to last longer. T-Shirts don’t really last regardless if it’s a cheap or expensive brand!

hello, i have a dilemma. i live in poland, and as you said, swim shorts for 10$ is extremely cheap. and yes, 10$ is cheap. for countries using dollars. here, we use PLN and 10$ is about 40 PLN which is not cheap. for us, H&M isn’t cheap, but it’s not extremely expensive too, though i can guarantee you that most of us in poland checked the price tag at H&M and went “this much for a piece of clothing?!”. we have stores (like kik or pepco) that sell for example swim shorts for 10 PLN which is cheap but no one buys these because of the bad quality. so in conclusion how does this affect the environment? if for us, 40PLN for the same shorts you pay 10$ for is not cheap, doesn’t that make no sense? a normal woman’s t-shirt costs 60 PLN which is about 15$. it’s not expensive for americans, yet it is for poles. if we pay an amount that is considered a lot here, doesn’t that mean that we’re actually paying a normal amount of money to people involved in the making process? and i don’t mean to say that poland is poor, of course not. we make a normal living just as you do, but somehow for us 10 PLN is cheap and so is 10$ for you, but 10$ is 40PLN, and that is not cheap, i guess you could say it’s like 40 $ for americans. it’s all fucked up yet it doesn’t make any sense to me. if someone could explain some things i’d be grateful.

if it's cheap someones else is paying for that (your cloths, your subsidized gas price, and the fact that you can afford to live an american life style, all means some where else the true cost is payed : future of environment, other animals lives, other people's lives, you name it)

H&M is considered cheap in modern countries, cause they have more designer brands gucci dolce gabbana etc. for us we have local brands that cut the cost of importing clothes such as padini, brands outlet. thats why we see zara bershka mango as expensive brands
