By April Dupee
There’s a good chance your Instagram feed and inbox are flooded with tempting clothing sales and trendy #OOTD pictures pitching new must-have items.
Fast fashion—the rapid production of inexpensive clothing in response to the latest trends—has led to bigger wardrobes with quick turnover. While this approach can be super fun (obviously!), it also comes at a high cost to the environment.
For example, it takes 2,700 liters of water to make one cotton shirt (which is enough water to keep one person hydrated for two and a half years). And according to the EPA, only about 15 percent of discarded clothing and footwear was recycled in 2015, meaning the rest went to landfills. Consequently, one report found the clothing and footwear industries account for an estimated eight percent of total global climate impacts.
Here’s the good news: There are so many easy ways to shop more consciously and reduce the environmental impact of your clothing choices. Whether it’s buying items made from recycled materials, shopping vintage, or embracing minimalism, it’ll benefit the environment and your wallet.
