CLIMATE CHANGE

1. One of the factors that contributes to Climate change is fast fashion.

1.1. Buying secondhand means you’ll be keeping plastic out of landfills and positively contributing to the decrease in worldwide textile demand and subsequent waste.

1.1.1. Fast fashion produces a lot of fabric waste and factories. Factories produce lots of CO2, which is one of the main causes of climate change.

1.1.1.1. The dyes used in the textile making process pollutes water supplies. They are usually dumped to rivers and lakes as this part of the process it is often carried out in underdeveloped countries where environmental regulations may not exist or be effectively enforced.

1.1.1.1.1. the production of the fabrics releases nitrous oxide (greenhouse gas that is 310 times stronger than carbon dioxide) By switching to second hand shopping, the money you spend won’t go toward supporting an industry that is characterised by water and air pollution.
