The fashion industry is a significant contributor to global carbon emissions and contributes significantly to the climate and ecology crisis, say authors. they say the fashion industry's production of textiles is a major contributor to pollution and climate change. they argue that fashion industry needs to adopt sustainable practices to mitigate its environmental impact. The social impact of the fashion industry on garment workers is a pressing concern that demands urgent attention. Addressing these issues requires concerted efforts from industry stakeholders, policymakers, and consumers to ensure fair labour practices, safe working conditions, and equitable treatment for the individuals who contribute to the global fashion supply chain. the fashion industry's remarkable growth and consumption patterns have led to significant environmental and social impacts. The industry contributes to carbon emissions, water scarcity, pollution, and biodiversity loss through its production processes and supply chains. Additionally, the surge in consumption and the production of disposable fashion have resulted in increased waste and exploitation of garment workers. To address these challenges, a shift towards sustainable practices, circular economies, and conscious consumerism is necessary.
