Did you know it takes about 2,700 liters of water to make just one cotton shirt? (That's about enough water for one person to drink for 2 1/2 years). Did you know that making a pair of jeans produces as much greenhouse gas as driving a car 80 miles? Manufacturing a piece of clothing has a tremendous impact on the environment. And the average American throws 70 pounds of clothing and textiles into the trash every year. If you do the math, you'll realize just how negatively our shopaholic ways have affected the planet. But there's good news! Tons of brands are now creating sustainable fashion, using recycled materials and foregoing animal skins like leather and fur. In today's episode, I'm sharing my top tips on how to stay fashionable and honor the environment at the same time. Because considering the planet never goes out of style.
