Valuing Water + How the Fashion Industry Doesn’t - One Wear Freedom

Valuing Water + How the Fashion Industry Doesn’t

Why, you may ask, is there an international awareness day entirely for water? In our everyday access to it we perhaps forget to value it for the beautiful and vital resource that it is.

It’s also tricky to contemplate water shortages when we live on a blue planet.

This is amazing but unfortunately many brands use sustainability as a marketing tool.
