Fast fashion is bad for the environment

Question

The fast fashion chain is directly linked to environmental pollution due to the use of material and immediate disposal. The extensive resource extraction is also a definitive issue. A huge issue with fast fashion is the massive use of water and the waste water that particularly is used with the making of textiles. The industry produces 92 million tonnes of waste a year. And beyond just waste water, the industry also has a huge impact on CO2 emissions.

Answer 1

1. These claims are true, the original source and authors are legitimate and real people. Also, I found that 35% of microplastics in the ocean are because of the fashion industry, and it is obvious that the fas fashion chain is a large part of that because they are producing the most, aka the fastest.

4. The Authors could exaggerate the claims to better fit their audience.
5. Every piece of the article supports the claim
7. No Response from the Person making the claim

Answer 2

I like your point about fast fashion being bad for the environment. I think your argument would be even stronger if you used a source based on actual research instead of just a general article, and added a bit more detail about how it affects pollution or waste.
