No one wants to be a fashion victim. Yet most of us don’t realize that the clothing and textile industry significantly impacts both human and environmental health. The lifecycle of our clothes involves hazardous chemicals such as pesticides, dyes, and solvents that pollute our air, water, and soil. Workers in textile factories are at the greatest risk of health impacts, but consumers also risk exposure to these chemicals as they can stay forever in some form on the clothes we wear.
