Apparel and footwear are responsible for an enormous and under acknowledged part of global greenhouse gas emissions, between 4-8.6%. (By comparison, the entire United States accounts for 11%). It is an industry pumping out an endless flow of mostly plastic based products taking no responsibility for how it is made or the waste it creates. The fashion sector is not just an enormous polluter, it is also a leading industry in the use of exploited, forced and child labor.

Those involved include:
Maxine Bedat, Founder & Director of NSI
Amber Vatletta, model and activist
Mara Hoffman, Founder and President of Mara Hoffman
Ngozi Okaro, Executive Director and Founder of Custom Collaborative
Mazeda Udding, Founder and CEO of SAFEST
Meadow Walker, Model and Founder/CEO of Paul Walker Foundation
