(Please send the mispronounced words and expressions to your student.)

PART D_2

Nowadays, a lot of fashion companies have been selling cheap and trendy clothing. This is called the fast fashion industry.
The Industrial Revolution introduced new technology such as sewing machines that helped dressmaking become easier, quicker, and cheaper. A few years later, fast fashion had taken over the industry.
The fast fashion industry creates thousands of designs inspired by the latest trends. Its production is often offshore where labor cost is cheapest. Although fast fashion has become popular over the past years, it has a significant effect on the environment. The industry is the second largest polluter of clean water because of its use of cheap and toxic textile dyes. Polyester is one of the most popular fabrics. It comes from fossil fuels that contribute to global warming. It can also shed microfibers that add to the increasing levels of plastic in the oceans. Moreover, natural fabrics such as cotton contribute to the problem too. That is why environmental groups such as Greenpeace have been pressuring companies to eliminate the use of dangerous chemicals in their production.
