IS FAST FASHION IMPORTANT THAN THE EARTH

STORY BY SALAMATU ADISS




In todays world fashion is moving in a rapid pace, new trends are released almost everyday. The fashion industry had also adapted to meet the demands of consumers cravings for the latest but affordable trends.

Fast fashion is nice, it is beauty but as humans living on earth have we for once stopped to consider the impact of fast fashion on the earth’s climate, have we forgotten there is no planet B. 


One major issue is the excessive use of resources. Fast fashion relies on large-scale production, which requires vast amounts of water, energy, and raw materials. This puts a strain on the environment and contributes to pollution and waste. 

Another concern is the disposal of fast fashion garments. Many of these clothes are made from synthetic materials that do not wear out easily when they are discarded, they end up in landfills, where they can take years to break down. Additionally, the production of synthetic fabrics releases harmful chemicals into the environment. When clothes go out of trends people like to get raid of them by buying them or dumping them wherever they want, this has really affected the climate and has endangered earth 

On the other hand, the importance of the Earth cannot be overstated. Our planet provides us with resources, sustains life, and offers a beautiful and diverse ecosystem. It is crucial that we prioritize its well-being and take steps to protect it.There is no other place for humans apart from earth, steps have to be taken to protect our planet. 

While fast fashion offers affordability and convenience, it's essential to consider the environmental impact it has. Making more sustainable choices, such as buying second-hand clothing, supporting ethical and eco-friendly brands, or opting for quality over quantity, can help reduce the negative effects of fast fashion on the Earth.

Remember, every small action counts! By being mindful of our fashion choices, we can contribute to a more sustainable future for our planet.

Say NO to fast fashion and say YES to sustainable fashion because that is the only way to save our planet
