Description
In our wardrobes, alongside coats and jeans, lies an environmental catastrophe, exploitation, and hope for change. What to have for breakfast and what to wear, almost every one of us asks ourselves in the morning. These banal questions have enormous consequences — for our health, the job market, and the environment. But while it has become common to examine the origin and production methods of food, the clothing production and fashion industry are still waiting for such a breakthrough in consumer habits. And it is a very dirty business... Journalist Dana Thomas tries to rectify this in her book The Fashion Government. She ventures into Bangladeshi factories, cotton plantations, and ultra-modern laboratories where the fabrics of the future are created, seeking ways to get dressed in the morning without exploiting people and destroying the environment.
