3.Choosing what to wear can be a tricky problem,especially if you're a fashion victim.Trying to keep up with the latest styles involves regular visits to the shops and changes,these clothes are forgotten in the back of cupboards gathering dust,or just get thrown away.
There are many stores that now offer cheap 'fast fashion'-low-price items that imitate the style of more expensive designer brands.Environmentalists are angered by the amount of energy involved in making these clothes and that many of them are incinerated,which is responsible for 20% of the world's waste water,and 10% of carbon emissions.
This is something the fashion industry is becoming more aware of and has led to a new crop of biomaterials that replace wasteful textiles like cotton and leather,Examples include Pinatex,a leather-like substance made from deserted pineapple leaves.It's been used in collections by Hugo Boss and H&M.And there's mycelium the root structure of mushroom that's being used to create food,packaging and textiles.
Cotton is a very resource-intense crop to grow,Eleanor Lawrie says "about 15,00 liters of water are required to make one pair of jeans.So,buying organic cotton is a better choice.And there is also Tencel,also known as Lyocell,a natural product that's now growing in popularity.
"But creating sustainable textiles is only part of the battle.Buying second hand and buying fewer clothes are the obvious environmentally friendly choices." said Dr.Richard from Leeds School of Design "I don't think you should consider buying any item of clothing unless you commit to 30 wears. "

A few senior high students were going to Fort Lauderdale with sandwiches and drinks in the paper bags,dreaming 'of the golden beaches as the gray cold of New York vanished behind them.As the bus passed through New Jersey,they began to notice a man,who sat in front of them,dressed in a plain,ill-fitting suit,never moving,his dusty face masking his age.He fixed his eyes on the photo in his hands,frozen into some personal cocoon of silence.
Deep into the night,outside Washington,the.jye.ai pulled into Howard Johnon's,and everybody got off except the man.He sat rooted in his seat,and the students began to wonder about him,trying to imagine his life:perhaps he was a sea captain,a runaway from his wife,an old soldier going home.When they went back to the bus,one of the students sat beside him and introduced himself.
"We're going to Florida," the student said brightly."I hear it's really beautiful."
"It is," the man said quietly,as if remembering something he had tried to forget.
"Want some bread?" the student said.He smiled and took a piece.He thanked him and retreated again into his silence.After a while,the man told his story slowly and painfully.

" When I was in prison I wrote to my wife," he said "I told her that I was going to be away for a long time,and that if she couldn't stand it,if the kids kept asking questions,if it hurt too much,she could just forget me,I'd understand,"
"Last week,knowing I would be free,I wrote her again.We used to live in Brunswick and there's a big oak tree just as you come into town.l told her that if she would take me back,she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree,and I'd get off and come home with her.If she didn't accept me,forget it,no handkerchief,and Id go on through."
"Wow," the student exclaimed and gazed at the photo in his hands.All the other students.jye.ai into it.
