CLIMERICK :Fast Fashion That’s Sold To Us Cheap

 KEEPING CLIMATE CONCERN



St Cuthbert’s Island, off Lindisfarne, Northumbria.
An islet under threat from rising sea levels. The islet
has been adopted by Eco-Verses as
a symbol of the global risk to low-lying places.

Fast fashion that’s sold to us cheap

Should really prevent us from sleep

For its corporates don’t care

They’re a total nightmare

With throw-aways piled high and steep.

 

See articles in The Guardian and on the BBC’s Climate webpage.
