4 Good Reasons To Switch To Sustainable Fashion Trends


With the tremendous increase in the degree of global warming, it has become important to consider making reforms from every possible dimension. With such measures, taking care of pollution from the textile industry has now gained great popularity. Along with that, the general population has also become greatly interested in keeping up with the latest trends in the fashion industry. Through sustainable clothing solutions, both these milestones are achieved.

Get better prices

There are many online stores and social network pages which sell second-hand goods at significantly lower prices. These are generally known as thrift stores and are critically acclaimed to be reliable. In most cases, they are very trustworthy and sell quality products. Since most of these clothes are scouted by the store owners from remote thrift stores, you tend to get prices that are several times lesser than the maximum retail price.

By reusing such clothing material, you save your wallet from a great swipe at a luxury store, while simultaneously caring about the planet.

Environment focussed stores

There are now many small businesses and off-beat clothing lines like Jakprints apparel which take it upon themselves to do something good towards the planet with every milestone achieved or order places. In this case, they plant trees or saplings with every order they receive. When you look at it from a long-term perspective, this is greatly beneficial to the environment.

Such environment-friendly brands often source their materials from organic conditions and manufacture their goods sustainably as well.

Reduce your carbon footprint

Though this might not be a directly beneficial point for you, this is of great significance as far as greenhouse gas emissions and levels of global warming are concerned. Most of the widely consumed cheap and fats fashion goods including nylon, polyester, etc. are processed by methods that involve petroleum and other processes which emit huge amounts of harmful pollutants.

By making use of pre-loved clothes and sustainably produced products, you save the earth from the emissions released from producing that specific piece, which is definitely more than you think it could be.

Healthier to all components of the environment

Usually, many of the clothing brands used to harm many animal lives during the process of their production. Though this has been brought down to negligible levels with the currently laid down restrictions, it is still present passively, like the pollution and destruction of forests.

The production units of fashion industries are known to produce over 8,000 different types of chemicals which are discarded into the environment regularly. Imagine how exponentially this could be brought down if a greater part of the population resorted to following more sustainable options for their clothing needs.

Conclusion

To wrap things up, it is safe to say that sustainable fashion is the next most popular thing in the fashion industry right now. It is also greatly promoted by many celebrities and fashion icons which has played a major role in bringing in people to follow the trend. It is recommended that you too make this switch and do your part for the environment.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
