will pretty little thing clothes cause cancer??

Hi guys!

A sit-down video feels so strange to me but I had to make this video about this topic.

Here's some info I mentioned in the video:

"What is Proposition 65?
Proposition 65 requires businesses to provide warnings to Californians about significant exposures to chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. These chemicals can be in the products that Californians purchase, in their homes or workplaces, or that are released into the environment. By requiring that this information be provided, Proposition 65 enables Californians to make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicals."

But do not panic!! The real issue here is the huge impact fashion has on all aspects of our lives, including the environment, Ignoring the obvious health warning, we are being impacted by these clothes even if we aren't direct consumers. Stay aware and shop sustainably!

Thanks so much for watching! xx

so more facts!

The fashion industry is valued at around $2.4 trillion and employs over 75 million people worldwide. It loses about $500 billion of value every year due to the lack of recycling and clothes that are thrown into landfill before ever being sold.

The industry accounts for a staggering 8-10 per cent of global carbon emissions – more than all international flights and maritime shipping combined. Part of these emissions come from pumping water to irrigate crops like cotton, oil-based pesticides, machinery for harvesting, and emissions from transport. The industry is responsible for 24 per cent of insecticides and 11 per cent of pesticides.
