The Geopolitics of Fast Fashion: U.S.-China & the World
Description
Fast fashion is possible because of international trade. Each year, the global fashion industry generates more than $4 trillion USD and provides families with affordable clothing options. However, as fast fashion continues to grow, so does awareness of pressing issues such as labor standards and environmental sustainability. How are the United States and China involved in the global fashion industry? How can they collaborate on the issues facing the global fast fashion industry, from production to consumption
Sheng Lu joins the National Committee in an interview recorded in October 11, 2024 to discuss how fast fashion is a global phenomenon and how the United States and China can cooperate on common areas of concern.
