climate change and fashion industry
What is climate risk for fashion?
Fashion is responsible for between 3 percent and 8 percent of total greenhouse gas emissions.
By 2030, extreme weather events could jeopardise $65 billion worth of apparel exports and eliminate nearly one million jobs in four economies that are among the most central to the global fashion industry.What is the relationship between fashion and the environment?
Improperly disposing of clothing can harm the environment, especially through wastewater.
Chemicals from decomposing clothing can leach into the air and into the ground, affecting both groundwater and surface water.
Aside from plastic pollution, textiles also contributes significantly to marine pollution.In the past five years, changes in weather alone have increased sales of shorts and sandals by half a percentage point, while reducing sales of fleece and outerwear by 1 percent, according to Evan Gold, executive vice president at Planalytics, a company that quantifies the impact of weather on consumer demand.
How can the fashion industry have a negative impact on the environment?
According to an analysis by Business Insider, fashion production comprises 10% of total global carbon emissions, as much as the European Union.
It dries up water sources and pollutes rivers and streams, while 85% of all textiles go to dumps each year.
