TARA TALKS || ETHICAL FASHION 🌱

☆ OPEN FOR MORE ☆ ☆ ☆ Hi everyone! I'm not posting as much as I wish I was.. since uni has started I've just been drowning a little bit & trying to stay on task with uni work!! I've literally been writing the script for this in my breaks between assignments and classes. Sorry for reading most of it out. I haven't had time to really consumed everything properly to just speak without reading - and i wanted to ensure i said everything correctly. Hope it wasn't too distracted!! Sending love to you all & I hope you've been well :) - Tara XX ☆☆☆ ☆ TIME STAMPS ☆ 1:39 - What is sustainable & ethical fashion? 3:14 - Ethicalities of the fashion industry today 5:00 - Social factors 8:45 - Environmental factors 11:40 - What can we do about this? ☆☆☆ ☆ INTERESTING RELATED LINKS ☆ (Not mentioned in video) - Documentary (on Netflix): 'The True Cost' - Social Impact of the fashion industry ** Rian Phin - Implications of Thrift Shopping: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WexaypaoGS4 ** Rivers Turning Blue & 500,000 tonnes in landfill (2017): http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-03-28/the-price-of-fast-fashion-rivers-turn-blue-tonnes-in-landfill/8389156 Social + environmental stats; video (http://www.huffingtonpost.com.au/entry/problem-fast-fashion_us_57ebfeafe4b0c2407cdb22c0 - Huffington Post isn’t the most reliable website, but they have some interesting stats from other sources in this video! ** Fast fashion impact on the environment (2016): http://www.newsweek.com/2016/09/09/old-clothes-fashion-waste-crisis-494824.html Fashion Industry Stats (2012): http://www.treehugger.com/sustainable-fashion/25-shocking-fashion-industry-statistics.html Fashion Fashion in Bangladesh (2016): http://www.ethicaltrade.org/blog/fast-fashion-crucial-bangladesh-so-whats-changed-rana-plaza-disaster Video on fast fashion’s environmental impact (2016): https://www.facebook.com/opposingviews/videos/10154239561061051/?hc_ref=NEWSFEED Washing clothes, environmental impact (2015): http://theswatch
