Destruction of the Environment |
“The clothing industry is the second largest polluter in the world ... second only to oil," (Eco Watch) The fashion industry is the second largest cause of destruction to our environment. It has contributed to pollution, smog in the air, and global warming. Due to large factories, mass production, and usage of new and toxic materials, the environment is suffering for it just for the sake of an item of clothing.
