Fast fashion may seem cheap, but it's taking a costly toll on the planet — and on millions of young customers
- The fast fashion industry is responsible for an estimated 8% to 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions, which are projected to grow quickly as the industry expands.
- Each year, more than 90 million tons of textile waste ends up in landfills globally, contributing to greenhouse gases as it decomposes.
- Many young consumers, particularly Gen Z ages 12 to 27, are concerned about climate change and may reconsider fast-fashion purchases if they recognize the connections between fast fashion and environmental harm.
