Story
There is a major disconnect between what we wear and our knowledge of its impact on land, air, water, labor, and human health. Even those who value access to safe, local, nutritious food have largely overlooked the production of fiber, dyes, and the chemistry that forms the backbone of modern textile production. While humans are 100 percent reliant on their second skin, it’s common to think little about the biological and human cultural context from which our clothing derives.

Story
Did you ever think about where your jeans come from? How about the people who made your T-shirt, or what happens to the clothes you grow out of when you're done wearing them? The fabrics clothes are made of, the way they are designed and sewn and shipped around the world, and the way we consume them and get rid of them - every step in this process has a big impact on our environment, on the people who work in clothing factories, and on our cultures.

Story
Are paper bags always more environmentally friendly than plastic? How green are electric cars? And what saves more water, using the dishwasher twice a week or washing dishes by hand every day? From the milk we put in our coffee to the clothes we wear, the choices that impact our carbon footprints can seem never-ending. Most of us want to do the right thing for the planet, but with so many factors at play, it can be difficult to figure out which is the greenest way.
