Greenpeace on why fashion is at a crossroads

Greenpeace has never been on the best of terms with the fashion industry. The global NGO is known to criticize the fashion industry for its lack of commitment to making its sector more sustainable. However, this is not the case this time. In the new study "Fashion at the crossroads" presented at Milan Fashion Week, Greenpeace criticizes fashion brands for pledging to move to a circular economy, essentially designing out waste and creating an endless lifecycle for their products. Although this is what many sustainability experts are asking for, most fashion brands who have signed the Global Fashion Agenda circular pledge have yet to deal with their enormous resource consumption rate. So how can they be more sustainable while consuming more resources?
