Event Details

In collaboration with East End Libraries. 

Fashion is responsible for 10% of human-caused greenhouse gas emissions, 20% of global wastewater and uses 93 billion metric tons of clean water each year. Fast fashion consumes more energy than the aviation and shipping sectors combined.

Mitch Ratcliffe of Earth911 will discuss the impact of fashion on the environment and what we can do about it.
