Fast fashion is the term applied to the world’s population purchasing of apparel that is trendy and soon to be replaced. This over consumption of resources generates waste for our landfills.

They learn about the problem of “fast fashion” and will identify solution using team consensus. This lesson contains adaptations for diverse learners (ELLs).
