📖 LONG READING
Fast Fashion: Cheap Clothes, Big Problems
As a journalist, I decided to learn more about fast fashion. Fast fashion is a business model that makes clothes quickly and sells them at low prices. Many people buy these clothes to follow trends, but they often throw them away after a few uses.
This causes many problems. Clothes end up in landfills. The production uses water, energy, and chemicals. Workers in some countries don’t get fair pay. I talked to experts, students, and shop owners. They shared their opinions about the fashion industry.
Many people are starting to change. They buy fewer clothes and choose better quality. Some stores now offer eco-friendly options. In my report, I will include advice to help people make better choices.
I am going to finish the report next week. I hope it helps more people understand the real cost of fast fashion.
