The luxuries underlying our material commerce have hidden the damage required to sustain them in the environment and the people of poorer countries. Unfortunately, this is ‘business as usually lethal’.
“Sweatshops and modern-day slave labour are producing the world’s best-known brands for a pittance. You’ve heard it all before, but it’s worse than you think. There is an even darker side to the global fashion industry, and this story has yet to be told.
It involves child slavery, 1,000 deaths a day from pesticide poisoning, farmers committing suicide in staggering numbers, pet cats and dogs made into leather, the destruction and contamination of our planet. All this is conveniently brushed under the carpet. This is the story of the innocent people who are ‘dying to clothe you’.”
