The Negative Impacts of Fast Fashion
This chapter discusses the issue of fast fashion and its systemic roots. It explores the impact of social media, stagnant salaries, and the increasing cost of living on people's purchasing behavior. The speakers mention how social media creates a fear of missing out (FOMO), leading to a desire for trendy clothes. However, due to financial constraints, people often cannot afford higher quality clothes. The chapter also touches on the lack of sustainable and affordable clothing options in the market.
