Leonardo DiCaprio Instagram – The fashion industry has implications on the environment. It can lead to chemical runoff, waste sent to landfills or dumped on the Global South, and exploitation of garment workers. New York is poised to take a leadership role in addressing this industry with The Fashion Act, which will raise the floor for the $2.5 trillion industry, so the next generation is not left with a climate, micro plastic, biodiversity, and human crisis. The bill’s supporters, who are urging the governor to sign, include not only environmental and environmental justice organizations and labor leaders within the supply chain, but also international and New York-based, brands, innovation companies and suppliers that recognize that they need to be regulated and see this as a win-win for the state’s economy, for global climate, and for human rights. #ActOnFashion Visit the link in bio to learn more.
