Scientists Now Claim Wearing Jeans is “Bad for the Environment”
Now they are coming for your jeans.
Scientists from the Guangdong University of Technology have released a new study claiming wearing jeans is “bad for the environment.”
According to the report, wearing a pair of fast-fashion jeans just once creates 2.5kg of CO2, or the equivalent of driving a gas-powered car 6.4 miles.
Guangdong University of Technology is a state-run school by the Guangdong Provincial People’s Government in China.
“This study took jeans as an example to reveal the carbon footprint of fast fashion consumption and its additional climate impacts compared to traditional fashion,” wrote the authors of the new report,
