It’s difficult to love our clothes and keep wearing them for longer when there are so many new offers in the shops. But before you start your shopping at the January sales with those amazing deals, think about the impact of fast fashion on the environment.

Fast fashion focuses on speed and low costs in order to create frequent new collections inspired by catwalk looks or celebrity styles. But it is particularly bad for the environment. Cloth colouring is the second largest polluter of clean water globally, after agriculture. Greenpeace’s recent Detox campaign has been helpful after it tested a number of brands’ products and confirmed the presence of harmful chemicals. Many of these are not allowed in various countries because they are toxic, bad for hormones and carcinogenic.

Polyester is the most popular fabric used for fashion. But when we wash polyester clothes in our washing
machines, microfibres are created and that increases the level of plastic in our oceans. These microfibres are very very small and can easily pass through sewage into our water resources, but because they do not naturally break into pieces, they represent a serious threat to water life. The serious impact of toxic chemicals used in agriculture, for growing cotton, was shown in a documentary called The True Cost, including the death of a US cotton farmer and serious birth defects in Indian cotton farmers’ children.
