“The negative impact that the fashion industry has on the environment and human health has been felt worldwide. From using pesticides to grow cotton to using toxic dyes to colour leather, the industry affects our lakes and rivers, landfills and lives. The toxic chemicals used in the process of producing clothing has long been hidden from the public's eye. Environmental Defence is proud to be part of Fashion Takes Action's mission to address these serious issues. Finally, there is an organization that is tackling this important issue and pushing the fashion industry to become more sustainable.”
