Fashion: What You Don’t Know About It

I am pleased to start a blog of my own and so i am just going to jump into it!

I had happened to spend time going on to Netflix and I came across a documentary called The True Cost which has shed light behind the curtains and reveals to us what the process of our clothing goes through. Have you ever wondered where your clothing really comes from and how it is made? I honestly never gave it much thought until I watched this documentary. What caught my attention in this documentary the most was the damage done to people and our environment due to the high increase in production. Farmers were forced to use pesticides and chemicals to keep up with the demand of the market,so no bugs or weeds would create problems during harvest as they do. It turns out that we are contaminating our lands and water with the use of these chemicals at a great pace, which is causing farmers to get cancer and villagers around these farms. People are dying and majorly being affected because the fashion industry which in my eyes is inhuman. A lot of this has to do with the way our world works and this my friends is money. We Americans can be completely oblivious to the impact money has on the world and that idiotic idea that materials can bring true happiness.  They talk about much more stuff but………..

Its 2:27am so I am just gonna say watch it you won’t regret it! Goodnight Friends.
