A group of climate activists, mostly college and university students, Monday staged protest demo against “fast fashion” and seasonal shopping craze saying it has a devastating impact on our environment.
With placards and banners, these young activists held peaceful protests outside top fashion outlets of Islamabad in various markets and drew people’s attention towards rising level of pollution and challenges to the environment. “Your shopping spree is enhancing and aggravating those challenges,” they said in their message to the public.
By constantly making new designs of clothing, and resources wasted because of these trends, pollution level is increasing and the environment is degrading.
These environment activists made posters in different languages like Sindhi, Pashto, Punjabi, English and Urdu to explain what fast fashion is and how Pakistani and international brands are contributing to this by indulging in fashion trends.
