When people talk about a product that negatively impacts the environment, they mostly think about plastic bags, used parts of cars and information technology devices, personal care products like diapers and sanitary towels, and other such product. And the good thing about the above-named category is that one can consciously choose a greener alternative to these products: use paper bags or recyclable bags instead of plastic, recycle IT devices through the companies that request for used products, choose re-usable options for diapers and sanitary towels. Many people do not however consider that clothing items can constitute environmental challenges too. Throughout childhood, children’s clothing and footwear are periodically changed to meet their growing frames, while the unused ones constitute a waste if they are not given out to others who might find them useful. A lot of these discarded clothing pieces end up in landfills, as technology has made clothing cheaper to buy, and the culture of repairs to prolong the lifespan of an item is fast eroding. Another impact of clothing and textile on the environment is the dyes that pollute the waterbodies, and the greenhouse emissions that are a by-product of the activities in the industry, so much so that the United Nations attributes about 10percent of the global emissions to the fashion industry. In recent times, however, a lot of businesses are becoming more social-conscious about the impact of their processes and products on their immediate environment, and in the fashion industry, this has seen the class of industries that classify their raw materials as sustainable, using environmentally friendly options of textiles like organic cotton, hemp, recycled cotton, Pinatex (plant-based leather made from pineapples), and even fabric made from plastic bottles. Through these initiatives, the waste generated by the fashion industry, which cannot be eliminated, can be controlled, one item at a time. There are also other options of choosing pre-used clothing for daily wear, sports ad activewear as well as children wear. When done right, a visit to thrift stores will turn up an amazing number of clothing pieces, options and matches that has the potentials to turn the shopper into a style icon. Humans must become more conscious and cautious of their activities, and how it impacts the world around them for better or worse. Komodo is a company that claims to be driven by the idea of producing sustainable fashion items for the public.
