The article "Green is the New Black" by Sharon Mosley describes how society is developing into a more earth friendly environment that is more concious about the impact of their actions on the planet. The article describes how society is evolving by becoming "green" and working to become less impactful on the environment in a negative way. The author includes suggestions from Matheson, an ecofriendly fashion designer, on how to make your fashion and style "greener," some of which are as simple as not using plastic bags and replacing them with reusable ones as well as reading the labels on products to be sure that they are completely natural. The article also provides several other suggestions to influence ecofriendly shopping and products.
The article is evidence of how society and new ideas and theories also influence the fashion world. The new concern among many societies around the world is that of global warming and enviromental destruction caused by human factors. The new campaigns to reduce our impact and carbon footprint on the world is showing up in the fashion world and in production altogether, the article addresses other products than just clothing and items related to fashion that are being altered to reduce this impact.
What can you do to reduce your negative impact on the environment?
