Assembly
Cotton Assembly and First Transport
Negative Impact
-
Transport uses up large amounts of fuel as with every other part of
clothing production and creates carbon emissions as well as using gas
derived from fossil fuels
-
Many workers in these sweatshops are in unsafe conditions as well as
being overworked and underpaid
-
As well as being a humanitarian nightmare they also use a lot of
energy derived from fossil fuels to produce the clothes
Alternatives
-
Buy local and support brands that are making things in your area
-
Go and buy stuff from transparent brands (brands that list where they
are getting there materials from, and where they are produced)
- And most importantly DO YOUR RESEARCH
