Do you like to look hip and stylish in fancy new outfits?  Do you prefer cotton over polyester?

Well, you may just be helping to destroy the planet!

As this article discusses about a recent Cambridge University report:

“The global textile industry must become eco-conscious, the report
concludes. It explores how to develop a more ‘sustainable clothing’
industry ? a seeming oxymoron in a world where fashions change every
few months…”

“It is hard to imagine how customers who rush
after trends, or the stores that serve them, will respond to the
report?s suggestions: that people lease clothes and return them at the
end of a month or a season, so the garments can be lent again to
someone else ? like library books ? and that they buy more expensive
and durable clothing that can be worn for years.”

Save the planet–lease all of your clothes!
