Description: This zine tackles the danger of the fast fashion industry and explains the benefits of living sustainably. It provides a step-by-step guide for how to approach clothing from a greener perspective, highlighting such topics as thrifting, minimalism, donating, repurposing, upcycling, shopping sustainably and affordably, which products and fabrics are a no-go, and more! It also includes a mini project plan for an event called International Fast Fashion Boycott Week (IFFBW) that we are blueprinting. We hope you enjoy the zine, learn a thing or two, and start making your own actionable change so that our planet is as sustainable as can be! - summary provided by the authors
