Fast Fashion : Good or Bad

Our friends from Minute MBA created a fantastic video about "Fast Fashion"  and how this kind of business can affect the environment. 

According to them, Every year, the clothing industry produces 2 million tons of waste, emits 2.1 million tons of carbon dioxide, and uses 70 million tons of water; these figures have significantly risen in the years since Fast Fashion became a retailing standard.

To make matters worse, the quality of these garments is typically so low that most are discarded or donated to charity by the wearer within two years of the original purchase.

Roughly 300 retailers have signed on to the Sustainable Clothing Action Plan (SCAP), a collective that aims to reduce wastefulness in the fashion industry. SCAP seeks to produce and sell clothing without producing undesirable environmental effects; another goal of the group is to exclusively limit international business deals and projects to countries that have established strict labor regulations.

Thanks to Amy Clark, who offer to share this video to all my readers and check their website at http://www.onlinemba.com/ which the video original released.
