who the hell only wears clothes a couple of times? My clothes go through seven stages of grief. They start out as date clothes, become work clothes, then bumming around the house clothes, then wife "you should throw that away" clothes, then 'dirty' work clothes, and finally rags.
Confused if this was a TED talk or a stand up ?! But brilliantly delivered... Unlike roasting audiences like so many comics do, this was decent and much needed!
@@caerxhan8313 all of this is true, there are many many articles and other videos that cite sources etc. It is amazing how horrible we are doing at reducing waste in general.

@@mkteku John Oliver is on another level though, tbh. He can do that as much as he pleases. Not saying that Hasan is at all bad, but Oliver has more clout and time spent in the industry so he can. Hasan will 100% get there with Patriot Act too
Wow, me being a penny pinching miser buying my clothes almost exclusively at thrift stores all of my life turns out to be environmentally friendly. Next time someone calls me a cheap ass, I respond with, "don't you mean eco warrior?"
As a Filipino, I just discovered we have helped reduce carbon footprints so much. First, we ain't throwing clothes just after a couple of times wearing them. No, we use them as long as they are not falling apart yet. Then, we use them as rags. And hey, we love our ukay-ukays (second hand clothes shops)!
It's great to hear that many Filipinos are embracing sustainable fashion practices by reusing and repurposing clothing, and by shopping at secondhand stores. By doing so, you are helping to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry and promoting sustainability. As I mentioned earlier, the production and disposal of clothing can have a significant impact on the environment, particularly due to the release of greenhouse gases and the generation of textile waste. By using clothing for as long as possible and finding ways to repurpose or recycle it, we can all contribute to reducing this impact. Secondhand stores like ukay-ukays are also a great way to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry, as they offer a more sustainable alternative to buying new clothing. By choosing to shop secondhand, you can extend the lifespan of clothing and reduce the demand for new production. Overall, it's inspiring to see that many Filipinos are taking steps to promote sustainable fashion practices. By continuing to embrace these practices and encouraging others to do the same, we can all contribute to a more sustainable future.
I'm American and you would be surprised at how many people are thrifty when it comes to clothes. I buy most of my clothing from 2nd hand shops and get compliments every time I wear them. I can't afford brand new designer clothing. And to be honest with you, I don't really like them. Peace Mohammed!
Donate to homeless shelters. Shop at thrift stores. Buy clothes when it's necessary, not to go with trends. seriously, wear clothes until they wear out.
we live in an age where not enough people care about pollution and the wellbeing of the planet. it's unfortunate. a hundred years ago i could understand not caring, because education wasn't available for them, but today? we know the earth is dying because of our actions and yet people just don't care.
If you’re gonna donate to a thrift store, make sure you’re donating something decent with lots of wear in it that a person would actually buy. Otherwise, you’re just making someone else throw it out for you.
You, a virgin American : *throws clothes away after using them a few times* Me, a chad Indian : *uses clothes much more time, then wears it as night wear, then uses it as holi wear, then uses it as a cloth to clean the table, then as a rug to clean the floor*
Shein clothes have high levels of heavy metals like cadmium and lead and those don't wash away in washing machines. The dose is 10 to 20 times more than an average human can digest without risking their health. Yeah we can digest toxines via our skin! Jewelry is made out of lead too
I'm in a fashion school and the more I learn about clothes are made, the less I want to be in the fashion industry. But at the same time I want to use my knowledge to make clothes that are as economically harmless as possible and are produced fair trade.
Same here. I get asked many times why have I not started a fashion design business since graduation, and I just cannot emphasise enough how much the dark side of fast-fashion has traumatised me. Deep down I do still wish I can help contribute to reduce the harm fast-fashion has caused for Mother Earth. But at this point, I'm all words and no action. It's pretty depressing...
Without a doubt you will have a big following for those of us who care about the planet and the cruel labor practices going into making our 'stuff'! And DON"T LET ANYBODY tell you "Oh that's hard." "Most people don't make it." Etc! They used to tell me that. I didn't listen and I made it just fine. Not ever rich in $, but rich in my ❤️
there is no ethical consumption under capitalism so that fair and eco-friendly business that you want wouldn't be as profitable as fast fashion. it would be hard, but it's not impossible.
Omg same, I'm also a fashion student and being a fashion student I'm asking my other friends who don't know about fast fashion to reduce shopping but they treat me like a joke....And keep on shopping....It's 5 am and I'm awake cause this is serious and it scares me and I want to help bring change but how do you bring down zara and hm......The earth is literally dying😢

Hah you uncultured mortals. In Africa when we wear our clothes for 5 years at minimum and they do not fit us anymore we pass it to our younger siblings or younger cousins and they have it for another 5 years and then tear it to some pieces and use one as kitchen cloth one as a door mat one as handkerchief and the other as a duster.
😂😅😂🤣 don't forget when parents go through the clothes you've outgrown so they can gift it to cousins and so in the village. We are so doing our part for the environment 🤣😂
Im american but Ive had some of the same articles of clothes since high shool(8 years ago) plus most of my clothes are more than 5 years old. I dont follow fashion trends I buy what I like. Whatever I dont wear anymore I donate to goodwill. I seldom buy clothes since I dont see the need..I deffinatly could t buy a new wardobe every seaso n.
It's actually a third world problem. The first world sucks the resources out of the third world and leaves the problems like pollution and greatest suffering from climate change back in the third world. It would be illegal to make these garments in the first world.
1st world nations made coal energy ...now they tell 3rd world nations to reduce carbon footprint or else get ready for trade sanctions....! Then they sneek buy making products cheaper here and use it in USA...then again they dump here...!
It's a social media problem. Hasan makes a great point that as people become obsessed with things like Instagram, their entire lives are cataloged and they feel like they can't repeat outfits or people will notice and judge them.
@@robp2545 at the very least, needing a new outfit to wear for three days of your life then throw away is a rich people thing. I have clothes from ten years ago.
this video is just incredible. the amount of information while still being able to keep everyone’s attention. most people don’t care to listen to problems because it’s boring or they feel there’s nothing they can do. but there pretty much is always something you can do.
68 pieces of clothes a year? *This is a high middle class/rich people with insecurities problem.* The rest of us have no problem with using the same clothes for years.
Ce G don’t forget they’re probably counting a pair of socks or underwear as one item when we often get a five or ten pack at once so that probably drives up the count a lot
I feel like it can be a problem for anybody. I'm personally lower income but environmentally conscious, so I try to avoid fast-anything altogether, but I know of similarly broke family members, friends, and just people from online clothing apps (offerup, etc) that just own s o m u c h disposable shit. It's crazy. People have an unhealthy obsession with shopping, and then turn around and joke about it as if their habits didn't have consequences.
Actually it's more complicated than that. Fast fashion also includes dirt cheap clothes that fall apart after 3-5 wears, and companies have an incentive to make clothes that fall apart easily so people have to re-purchase their wardrobes. Often you find that middle-to-upper class folks are able to purchase higher-quality clothing (though arguably in excess), while lower-income folks can't -- this traps lower-income folks in a cycle of purchasing fast fashion on a regular basis regardless of what's in style or not.
True, This video goes to highlight that how developed countries fuck over the developing ones. I m not shitting on developed countries, they have their advantages. It's just when people from developed countries r condescending towards other countries, it makes me feel bad cos those people r not that blameless themselves.
@@zenderbender1960 Yeah- the only clothes i usually buy from anywhere except thrift stores are undergarments. If i have three full climate-adaptable outfits that fit comfortably & look like me, plus plenty of warm socks and long underwear, i'm good. :-) .... Shoes do wear out quickly, when i actually go places, though.
@@Lily-tj1zo Whenever I buy anything, I buy quality. I don't believe in fast fashion, I prefer pure leather, downs etc that have long life quality. I keep in mind great souls like Umer Ibn Khattab(RA), APJ Abdul Kalam, that teach us one should use only as much as required. I have lether jacket as old, but still looks new, it's all about taking care of your clothes. If you won't respect your clothes, your clothes won't respect you, and one wouldn't look good regardless of that one wears.
So true. Half my wardrobe is at least 5 years old. I have some clothes that are 10 years old and I still wear them. You know the rule, wear until it tears, then use it for wiping furniture/floor 😅😂
Jonathan Taylor You’re not wrong bro, but overloading people with info like that isn’t the best approach. Try starting conversations rather that just throwing everything out there and hoping it sticks.
@@Rickyp0123 Then you can also start by telling people around who are also not poor to stop doing that too, just saying, because the rich influence other rich, you can be a role model to them and telling them to reduce fast fashion. Just a bunch of thoughts.
Exactly. And when they go out of style, wash and store. Start wearing what you do already own that is now trending. Then when it stops trending, wash and store until it comes back in season again. Create another collection from your existing wardrobe for what is trending. Your clothes last longer, because they get to "rest" when they are not trending. That ladies and gentlemen, is RECYCLING. Creating fashion exclusively from your old wardrobe since...well... whenever you begin, I guess. Just don't dwaddle. Since I was a child I have been mixing and matching, and only adding a few essentials every five years or so. It made a Frugal Fashion Stylist out of me.
everyone: must have different cute outfits everyday me: finds a cute outfit once, either keeps wearing it repeatedly or restyles it 60 times by changing one piece of clothing lol
“Textile fashion created more greenhouse gas emissions than all of the international flights and maritime shipping combined.” Just let that sink in for a moment...
I would really appreciate if few celebrities start repeating their clothes in public appearances. That will surely encourage people to embrace not get embarrassed. Even Hassan wears a new outfit every episode. If he himself stands by his example that would be great. P.S. I am a middle class indian, and all comments about reusing clothes are true.. :P
Celebrities do repeat their clothes all the time It's normal people that don't do that..cuz they want every thing that any celebrity wear They are sick
@@dhuhafiras3651 yeah , people think that if they wear what celebrities wear , they will look more attractive but they don't think that it's not clothes that make celebrities attractive or more confident, nowadays fashion is not what makes you look better but what celebrities wear.
What Hassan wears on the show is dictated by the hair and makeup department, and most of it is either rented, or returned after use. There's probably an intern whose job or is to go and pick out a whole bunch of clothes for him to try on, and when they pick one outfit the rest is returned. Even the one they used in the show is likely returned. Just think about it, they go through a new outfit every week, it's not like the presenter or even the production crew can store and care for all those clothes.
@@deus_ex_machina_ I don't think you get my point. I am not saying him to keep all his clothes and maintain it. I am just saying he could repeat it and appear wearing same outfit in 2-3 episodes. That's it. And same for the other celebrities, what is the stopping them to do it on public platform like this.
This video is so inspirational. I’ve changed my mind a lot after watching this. I never follow any trend or catch up with the latest designs like a lot of people around me, especially my peers. Sometimes I feel insecure because I have nothing good or new or fashionable to wear for special occasions because I never ask for new clothes from my parents, so I keep wearing the same clothes for 6-7 years. But now I feel I have always doing the right thing for the environment: buy less, use longer. I am considering buying the next shirts and pants at a second-hand store as Hasan advised. Thanks for all the things you shared us. I never thought a person can have such big impact on the planet like this.
My one clothing purchase in 2019: I bought a pair of jeans from the Gap, on sale. It was to replace a pair of dress pants that I literally wore out over the course of five years. I last bought socks in 2015. (Buying in bulk for the win!)
When your Indian and you wear the same clothes for 10 years. And your elder siblings wore them for 10 years. And your parents wore them for 10 years. And your grandparents would've probably worn them but they can't remember.
When they speak about H&M and Zara like its cheap, I'm like... those are expensive boi. Also why would you wear clothes and throw them away when you can wear them at home and then make them into floor mats? These reduce, reuse and recycle were meant for west or the extremely rich. We've been reusing plastic bags and hand me down clothes since forever.
@@captaininsane9101 Yes, but Europe is so vastly different from place to place that is literally impossible to say anything is stereotypical European. Italy is too, but we mixed enough in the last 40 years that can be easily overlooked.

17:11 Damn. I live in Kenya and this is a big problem. Clothes are sent to the country and it killed our local industries; from cotton farms to the point of sale. Even now I'm wearing something from outside the country. The paradox again is that thousands of families rely on selling the clothes that are shipped in in bulk. We're between a rock and a hard place where donations with good intentions somehow destroy local buinesses at the same time.
@ Kraig Ochieng, Over 20 years ago, i watched a documentary of how France was dumping clothes in western Africa. At the time, french ministers were asked if they were aware that "they" were killing the local industries. The french ministers responded that "they" were well aware of the consequences of this policy (back then this industry was supported by the french government) but "they" have to save french jobs (which were mostly charity workers). As a young lad, i remembered thinking " you, selfish A-holes".
Here's the problem, every good thing you ever do will harm someone somewhere. Every time you reduce waste or increase efficiency, you take jobs away from somebody. In this case, reducing waste is overwhelmingly the greater good.
Indians never dispose their clothes until they are totally totally worn off......(they have also been repaired a lot of times) And after that we still use it for dusting and cleaning purpose
Essica Rahman I remember when I got a horrible t shirt I didn’t want to ware but she kept on reminding me which forced me wear the t shirt until it worn out
Some traditional chinese families still doing it too. I had a shirt that was donated by a cousin cause she got too skinny and it is still with me today. I think I wore the stuff from my childhood till the waist bands couldn't be called bands anymore. Then we use it as a blanket or something. I had a really nice knitted blanket by my granma
Wtf, how much do you pay for them? Pls add reference average salary and something like that, because as a lower-middle class European I find those extremely cheap and I literally can't find anything cheaper around. What do you usually spend on a shirt?
I can recommend buying high quality vintage stuff. It lasts your life and is cheaper because it's used. You can buy a vintgae burberry trenchcoat for $150 and wear it your whole life. They are never out of style. This generally applies to jackets, coats and suits. They cost a bit more when you buy them but have a low cost/wear.
Why buy it when you can make you mom go there and put ideas into her head like this would totally look good on me so what do you think? (proceeds to buy it for me without directly asking)
Thread, fabric, and other materials can be made into clothing, rather than purchased from a company. The same process can be used to repair clothing and extend its life. Or, you can reduce the impact of existing clothing by buying it used from a thrift store. Often, you can find very good items of clothing from these stores, because persons of good taste have donated unused clothing.
But there's one thing I want to tell that nobody cares about, please do NOT buy clothes from the people you know online on insta selling their clothes for almost the same or even higher price than the selling price and starting "thrift" online accounts. Those people are NOT saving the planet, they're just rich kids who want to make money on the side by selling the clothes they wore for maximum of 5 times their whole lives. Instead buy clothes from tiny shops locally or buy half of what you usually buy each year. Just a bunch of thoughts.
ALL FASHION. high luxury brands are equally damaging to the environment, they equally use cheap labour from 3rd world countries, the only difference is that they use better schemes to cover up their tracks. "made in italy" doesn't necessarily means the entire piece was done there, and doesn't necessarily means their factories and workers are being treated the way they claim they are,
What about the fact that luxary brands damage and burn out of season stock that hasnt sold so as to not cheapen the value of the brand by selling it on discount or having it wind up in outlet stores for less. Huge waste of materials for stuff thats just thrown away its infuriating.
But at the same time most of these brands make high quality long lasting clothing. You can keep a Tom Ford suit for years. On the other hand an H&M suit...
@@ibrahimkante6022 yea, that's a bit of a reach lol. I'vehad zara clothing last years, and a friend of mine had a gucci bag who lasted 4 months lol. I worked in the textile industry. A lot of suppliers have both Zara and Dolce & Gabbana as clients lol. More expensive does not necessarily means better in fashion.
I live in a third world country and some talented shoe maker who makes shoes from scratch sell them to some Italian brand from there it is sold as "made in Italy"
Ascalis u really think multi millionaire or even self made billionaires as Forbes put it are using the things they promote😐 it’s not the countless cosmetic procedures and the best things their millions can buy? It’s not as simple as them just promoting what they wear, they promote what pays. And the purpose of their job is in the name- influencer. Their job is to influence the public and a significant number of them are younger underage teenagers who have less of an ability to know any better.
I remember when l moved to a developed country and had a proper salary: l came out of “New Yorker “ with 3 bags of clothes.. l was so happy thinking l just bought expensive clothes. 3 years later l found half of those clothes in my closet, l never wear them and they ended up being donated. Since then l try to buy more consciously and l hate having a way to full closet so l buy only what l really need, usually from proper brands, good materials and yes 3 -4 times more expensive then the fast fashion items. After buying proper clothes made out of good materials, it’s vert hard to go back to the crapy fast fashion items. You start noticing how this fast fashion items fit only skinny , 20 years young people, the material is disturbing for my skin, l sweat a lot in them and they break in a month..

I hate going bra shopping. It's lowered humiliating because I often can't find my size and have practically no choice. (32 DD or E) I'm 17 now and the bras I have are from 2/3 years ago. I know it's so bad for me so I don't wear them I just chill in these spandex loose sporty type bras. As for underwear I've had o buy that because my hips have grown astronomically through the past 3 years. My clothes are market material made by my grandma and or seamstress that lives near my house. I wear abayas which is basically a long black dress and my scarves are also from the market. The rest of my clothes like bags, jackets coats etc are handmedowns from my aunt who was extremely stylish in her youth so I have some cute vintage pieces. I only have shoes and even then I have like 3 pairs and wear them until they rip hahaha. I hate shopping- online shopping is even worse.
See, that's the scary thing. 68 is the _average_ . I don't buy near that many articles of clothing a year which means either someone else had to buy way more or the people who shop like that as a whole buy more than 68 articles a year

Loved this, lots of things to think about. I remember being in The Gap about 15 or so years ago, they were running a huge sale. There was a teen girl there with her mother and there literally was a pile of clothing they were going to purchase, sitting at the cash register. Probably more clothes than most people would buy in a year. And it just keeps getting worse. I love the way he took the facts and figures and made it memorable.

Bruh, I can barely afford new clothes either. Come to Nigeria and buy clothes like this one!! They still kinda expensive tho! :( myokq.com/2020/01/02/its-2020-my-fashion-style-goals/
Zara is considered high end clothes in Viet Nam and is crazy expensive here, to put it into perspective, one piece of clothes from Zara can easily be 10 times more expensive than the same design from a local store, obviously the quality is higher, but not enough to warrant such price
True. Wool can even reduce emisions of green house gases and fertelize ground but only provided it is from regenerative farming like the one highlanders in Poland do. Wool also has anti-bacterial properties
It's not propaganda. If you make more clothes and throw them out in a few weeks that creates a lot of waste. That's a fact. And since more clothes are made they use more resources. Again simple fact. They are producing more because we want more, but that will produce more waste than the previous system
I am from a rich western country (Austria). I wear my clothes usually for 10-20 years until they fall apart. Sadly most people indeed do yearly and actually monthly shopping. But I see a change in attitude recently. There are more and more second hand shops becoming hip. Thanks for increasing awareness.
Holy shit, I’ve been part of the solution this whole time. My clothes last me a long time, we pretty much pass down our clothes that don’t fit to each other, We mend other clothes into something new, and sometimes we buy stuff at the thrift stores (hey there are some cute shit there, sometimes). So I feel a little better, I may not be rocking new clothes each week but I still look fly.
Twice a year, my girlfriends and I comb through our closets. We bag items we are done with then pass the bags around our circle. I love to sew and upcycle my clothing. I shop second hand stores but find that sometimes their idea of a quality item is way over priced for something that was donated. I used hold a cloth sale twice a year when I worked at a hotel. We had 40 women sign up to sell their own clothing etc for a one day sale. It was amazing. I'd sell enough articles & reinvest my money purchasing from the other sellers. Left over clothing was either packed back up and taken home or the seller had the choice of donating it to the Canadian Diabetes Association. They in turn sell it & get paid by the pound. We stopped holding the sales when my friend who helped me wanted to concentrate on starting her family. She & her husband welcomed a son early last January. By then, I had left my job at the Hotel. We were allowed to use the ballroom at no charge. Each seller paid $20. That money was spent renting clothing racks, advertising and snacks etc.
Giiiiirl!! Same! My sister and I trade clothes and buy them mostly from thrift stores! My wardrobe is mostly hand me downs and I’ve had most of them for so long because I wear them a lot and wash them less! I even handwash some of them so they can last longer!
I found a beautiful Prada black skirt at Goodwill years ago for $4.00. I didn't even know what Prada was, just thought it was a nice looking skirt that was well made. It is a hit or miss, but if you look enough on a regular basis, you will find something worth buying.

Hassan: buy one item second hand Me: wearing my cousins bra because she grew out of it. My mom: added two extra hooks to the same bra when I grew fatter and had me wear it for additional years Desi people are born sustainable
There is one article of clothing that I will spend a lot of money on. A well fitting bra. It is the most important article of clothing you can wear. All my clothes can be 5, 10, 20, even 30 years old, but everything looks good, whether it is an old T-shirt, or a fancy new T-shirt, you look great. I only buy clothing I really like and which fits well, and then I wear it until it’s falling off me, and then I might wear it around the house. Just one properly fitting nude bra, and one a little less basic, perhaps in black, which you wash with real gentle soap and it never sees the sun, drip dry in shade are the best investment a woman can make. That way they last for years and you get value for money. Get an actual fitting before buying. 80% of women are wearing the wrong (incorrectly fitting) bra, approximately 70% of woman wear too small a bra and 10% of woman wear too large a bra. I do also buy a T-shirt bra in nude, but that can be your first nude bra. There are some beautiful bras these days. Not so much here in South Africa, it is better overseas, but it is getting better in South Africa in terms of variety. A fitted swimming costume is also a great idea, although I haven’t invested in one. Nah, Americans are terrible spendthrifts by the sounds of it. Very few people in Africa can afford even 5 new items of clothing per year, never mind 12 or 68. Zara and H+M is too expensive for most. Perhaps one pair of shoes in 2-3 years. I wear my shoes until it is no longer possible to repair them.
I watched this week’s film, “The Ugly Truth of Fast Fashion” on how horrible the short style enterprise model is so damaging to society and the environment. Hasan Minhaj did a great job at exposing the cruel realities of the cheap fast fashion industry that so many people buy into. I didn’t know that many stores that market to be environmentally friendly are actually fast fashion stores in disguise. It's sad to see how the environment and people are being exploited and abused in horrible conditions in order for people who are more fortunate to be able to buy clothes at a slightly more affordable price. The fact is, people like the constant change of fashion and buying new things is what fuels the fast fashion industry and culture which promotes this work environment. The capability of these companies to exploit people through predatory tactics is scary to think about because of the power and wealth that they hold. The people working in these conditions have no other choice but to work and these companies are taking advantage of this fact. The environmental problems caused by this rampant consumerism of clothes is the immense use of water to produce cotton and the materials for these clothes. Before this film, I didn’t know that so many people don’t even use 1/2 of the garments they currently bought more than three times which is crazy to think about. One thing that I have been starting to do is to thrift for clothes instead of buying new clothes. Watching these films and learning from this course has solidified my view that lifestyle changes are the first steps towards climate action. I enjoyed watching this week’s film and I hope that more people will be exposed to the issues created by our clothing lifestyle.
This problem is happening with every line out there. Clothes are made so poorly these days. The fabric is so thin and flimsy that they can't stand up against repeated washes. This is done on purpose so that you will throw it away quickly and then go out to buy new clothing. It's a scam. A legal scam. I still have shirts from Old Navy from twenty year ago that have not faded or sprouted holes. Their shirts used to be built to last. Not so much any more. You can say you want to keep on wearing your new clothing longer but you can't because the clothing, themselves, won't let you.

As a Filipino, I just discovered we have helped reduce carbon footprints so much. First, we ain't throwing clothes just after a couple of times wearing them. No, we use them as long as they are not falling apart yet. Then, we use them as rags. And hey, we love our ukay-ukays (second hand clothes shops)!
All Asians do ;)
It's great to hear that many Filipinos are embracing sustainable fashion practices by reusing and repurposing clothing, and by shopping at secondhand stores. By doing so, you are helping to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry and promoting sustainability.
As I mentioned earlier, the production and disposal of clothing can have a significant impact on the environment, particularly due to the release of greenhouse gases and the generation of textile waste. By using clothing for as long as possible and finding ways to repurpose or recycle it, we can all contribute to reducing this impact.
Secondhand stores like ukay-ukays are also a great way to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry, as they offer a more sustainable alternative to buying new clothing. By choosing to shop secondhand, you can extend the lifespan of clothing and reduce the demand for new production.
Overall, it's inspiring to see that many Filipinos are taking steps to promote sustainable fashion practices. By continuing to embrace these practices and encouraging others to do the same, we can all contribute to a more sustainable future.

I'm personally lower income but environmentally conscious, so I try to avoid fast-anything altogether, but I know of similarly broke family members, friends, and just people from online clothing apps (offerup, etc) that just own s o m u c h disposable shit. It's crazy. People have an unhealthy obsession with shopping, and then turn around and joke about it as if their habits didn't have consequences.
Actually it's more complicated than that. Fast fashion also includes dirt cheap clothes that fall apart after 3-5 wears, and companies have an incentive to make clothes that fall apart easily so people have to re-purchase their wardrobes. Often you find that middle-to-upper class folks are able to purchase higher-quality clothing (though arguably in excess), while lower-income folks can't -- this traps lower-income folks in a cycle of purchasing fast fashion on a regular basis regardless of what's in style or not.

Exactly. And when they go out of style, wash and store. Start wearing what you do already own that is now trending. Then when it stops trending, wash and store until it comes back in season again. Create another collection from your existing wardrobe for what is trending. Your clothes last longer, because they get to "rest" when they are not trending. That ladies and gentlemen, is RECYCLING.

What Hassan wears on the show is dictated by the hair and makeup department, and most of it is either rented, or returned after use.
There's probably an intern whose job or is to go and pick out a whole bunch of clothes for him to try on, and when they pick one outfit the rest is returned. Even the one they used in the show is likely returned.

We're between a rock and a hard place where donations with good intentions somehow destroy local buinesses at the same time.
@ Kraig Ochieng, Over 20 years ago, i watched a documentary of how France was dumping clothes in western Africa. At the time, french ministers were asked if they were aware that "they" were killing the local industries.

I am feeling so good right now as I didn't buy a single piece of clothing in the past five years...
wow good on u
your closet must be so 2015
More than half of my wardrobe is decade old, even my profile pic is in its teens
Yh just made them
Mood xD
you guys are missing out, there's so much good clothing at thrift shops, or fabrics you can turn into clothes
Please explain.
Thread, fabric, and other materials can be made into clothing, rather than purchased from a company. The same process can be used to repair clothing and extend its life.
Or, you can reduce the impact of existing clothing by buying it used from a thrift store. Often, you can find very good items of clothing from these stores, because persons of good taste have donated unused clothing.
I've been doing the second hand thing
Not everyone is talented or has time to make their own clothes though it is a great solution to unique body shapes
But there's one thing I want to tell that nobody cares about, please do NOT buy clothes from the people you know online on insta selling their clothes for almost the same or even higher price than the selling price and starting "thrift" online accounts. Those people are NOT saving the planet, they're just rich kids who want to make money on the side by selling the clothes they wore for maximum of 5 times their whole lives. Instead buy clothes from tiny shops locally or buy half of what you usually buy each year. Just a bunch of thoughts.
ALL FASHION. high luxury brands are equally damaging to the environment, they equally use cheap labour from 3rd world countries, the only difference is that they use better schemes to cover up their tracks. "made in italy" doesn't necessarily means the entire piece was done there, and doesn't necessarily means their factories and workers are being treated the way they claim they are,
What about the fact that luxary brands damage and burn out of season stock that hasnt sold so as to not cheapen the value of the brand by selling it on discount or having it wind up in outlet stores for less. Huge waste of materials for stuff thats just thrown away its infuriating.
@@vianjelos just awful
But at the same time most of these brands make high quality long lasting clothing. You can keep a Tom Ford suit for years. On the other hand an H&M suit...
@@ibrahimkante6022 yea, that's a bit of a reach lol. I'vehad zara clothing last years, and a friend of mine had a gucci bag who lasted 4 months lol.
I worked in the textile industry. A lot of suppliers have both Zara and Dolce & Gabbana as clients lol.
More expensive does not necessarily means better in fashion.
I live in a third world country and some talented shoe maker who makes shoes from scratch sell them to some Italian brand from there it is sold as "made in Italy"
Hasan is the perfect cross of funny and educating. I have learned more from his Netflix special than I did from 12 years of public education.
I think there's not enough time given for this episode. This is a deep matter
So true
He could have gotten like 3 more layers deeper tbh, but he gave a good summary of whats happening regarding fast fashoon.
It’s a rather good summary.
A French team of investigating journalists did a film about it a few years ago, it lasted 2 hours if I remembered well, it was so, SO insane...
AGREED
I haven't thrown out a garment unless it had holes in it.
Yatharth Verma tfw I still wear my shirts that have gaping holes in em
Holes are in lmao
Like a true Indian
if it doesn't fall off your body naturally, it's not ready to be thrown out.
I still wear some T-shirts with holes when at home
Me buying Zara in Algeria thinking am rocking pricy brands
Bruh in South Africa it be like that
Haha.. I know... Even here in Kenya I was thinking H/M was a luxury brand!!
OMG 😂 same
Same in India
Lmao sameee from India
Hassan be trynna raise awareness in a fun way is incredible, man. Hats off 👏👏👏
People like Kim Kardashian and social media is making people insecure of themselves and their clothes
Honestly I don't blame the celebrity for wearing their choice of clothes. The problem is the people who immediately copy them like fish in a shoal.
They make me happy that I have natural lips and curves.

U soo beautiful 😎😎🤙🤙
She also indirectly helps people in situations like these.
Ascalis u really think multi millionaire or even self made billionaires as Forbes put it are using the things they promote😐 it’s not the countless cosmetic procedures and the best things their millions can buy? It’s not as simple as them just promoting what they wear, they promote what pays. And the purpose of their job is in the name- influencer. Their job is to influence the public and a significant number of them are younger underage teenagers who have less of an ability to know any better.
The crux of the problem is CONSUMERISM.
Forced Consumerism.
Nah, we're past that point. This is called "Hyper Consumerism."
You spelled capitalism wrong
wrong, it's capitalism
It's both of those!!!
And here in India we've clothes that do rounds with every cousin that ever gets born...
OMG yes 😂
Couldn't agree more😂😂😂
yeah old clothes are generally used for cleaning or given to yonger siblings/maids kids depending on their condition
In India Zara is Luxury . 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

"I wanna be a sexy carrot, but I don't wanna hurt the environment!"
"Don't cry."
Pretty much sums up my shopping experiences.
I guess it's good thrifting is catching on
I remember when l moved to a developed country and had a proper salary: l came out of “New Yorker “ with 3 bags of clothes.. l was so happy thinking l just bought expensive clothes. 3 years later l found half of those clothes in my closet, l never wear them and they ended up being donated. Since then l try to buy more consciously and l hate having a way to full closet so l buy only what l really need, usually from proper brands, good materials and yes 3 -4 times more expensive then the fast fashion items. After buying proper clothes made out of good materials, it’s vert hard to go back to the crapy fast fashion items. You start noticing how this fast fashion items fit only skinny , 20 years young people, the material is disturbing for my skin, l sweat a lot in them and they break in a month..
Hasan, celebrities like you should become role model. Wear the same costumes more than few times. Show people its alright.
lol that's never gonna happen
Totally agree! That would be a big change.
Tiffany Haddish wore her white evening gown to several things and bragged about it. She wore it at awards shows, on talk shows and to host SNL. Others should do this.
Yup well said
but then they would buy the same outfit everytime instead of wearing the same
As an Indian watching this I feel like we're doing at least something right.
Yo I'm Indian too, and I only buy a few clothes, once a year (I even wear clothes from 5 years ago). But my uncles and aunts *just. won't. stop. buying me a bunch!* What do I do, please help
@@pranavlimaye politely ask them to give you shagun money instead of the clothes. :P
Maybe you are doing right because you are on this video i believe you. But other Indian they don't care, i saw comments of Indians abusing WHO because they say kanpur is most polluted city. And Kanpur people be like WHO is chutiya kanpur is the best city.
They'll take it as a personal attack on their taste in clothes
@@diksha9496
I agree. Most Indians live (in some ways) more environmentally friendly lives, but for all the *_other_* reasons (wrong reasons). They don't really give a crap, like any other country
I live in Asia so when you post Sundays I get it Mondays and it's the best way to end my day as I do my homework
Me too ^^d
Saaaaame
Same here
the guy who answered the question about kids working in factories with "maybe we'll be X men in 50 years" had me livid
And I’m sitting here like...
70% of my clothes are literally hand me downs. The other 20% is like new underwear, socks, bras, and like a new pair of shoes each year because I will wear and tear shoes when I get them till the end.
You have new underwear and socks?! My parents like forced bought them for me cuz they knew I'd never buy any myself..... Like the mall is 10 minutes away and I'd rather sleep tbh
@@ChangedNames lol i used to be like that too. So now i'll wear my undies untill they rip
I hate going bra shopping. It's lowered humiliating because I often can't find my size and have practically no choice. (32 DD or E) I'm 17 now and the bras I have are from 2/3 years ago. I know it's so bad for me so I don't wear them I just chill in these spandex loose sporty type bras. As for underwear I've had o buy that because my hips have grown astronomically through the past 3 years. My clothes are market material made by my grandma and or seamstress that lives near my house. I wear abayas which is basically a long black dress and my scarves are also from the market. The rest of my clothes like bags, jackets coats etc are handmedowns from my aunt who was extremely stylish in her youth so I have some cute vintage pieces. I only have shoes and even then I have like 3 pairs and wear them until they rip hahaha. I hate shopping- online shopping is even worse.
Jesus, I can't imagine having enough money to buy that many items of clothing a year.
Grey Aria we don’t...it’s called credit.
Thats why they buy cheaply from h&m
See, that's the scary thing. 68 is the _average_ . I don't buy near that many articles of clothing a year which means either someone else had to buy way more or the people who shop like that as a whole buy more than 68 articles a year
@@goste4 ohhh... Is that the thing you get when you have some number that says you're a better human being worthy of having a plastic card and *more* debt? I've heard of this credit... It sounds scary.
@@chestersnapsadly, I think my bf's mom is probably one of those far on the plus side of that average...
so me thrifting is literally saving the world
You wish. Basically doesn't make a dent. All these ideas are stupid. Production must change. Manufacturers must change. Recycling will not save us at all. Just slow it down a tiny bit
@@danfield6030 also basically just change the entire US government. since that's where almost all the world's problem started nowadays.
technically yeah I guess.
@@wienzard93 that's a bit reactionary and heisterical
@@danfield6030 I don't believe they're stupid, they're just what regular people can do who don't have the power to change production. This is mostly a case of corporate greed. We can't help a lot, but we can do as much as we can on our own.
Of all the doom and gloom videos out there, this one makes me feel pretty good about myself as I put my favorite shirt in the washing machine - a shirt I got 19 years ago as a hand-me-down from my older brother. It's so thin at this point, it feels like I'm not even wearing a shirt. Perfect for summer
Cool breeze!
Oh god, I'm Indonesian and find this so freaking true. We do need real political will to tackle this serious environmental issues

This is in every fucking country . companies poisoned water everywhere incluing USA , CANADA .
Yeah the x-men shit, that's how Indonesia's bureau take care all of the shit, evading with a "joke"
As a 40 year old who's still wearing his clothes from high school, I feel completely vindicated after watching this.
I was mid thirties when I wore out my first pair of shoes instead of growing out of them. They lasted almost 20 years before falling apart. In the mean time, my daughter has more pairs of shoes at age 8 than I've had full stop. Shit's ridiculous, yo.
@@korenn9381 You must not put many miles on your feet. I blow out the bottom on the heels after about 2 years, but I live in the city, ride the subway, don't drive hardly ever, and walk a couple miles everyday for fun plus the miles I walk to get around.
@@bpdmf2798 Yes, I think that's correct. My daily commute is by bike, and that doesn't really put much wear on your shoes.
I wear the same jeans/jacket combo like a cartoon character
i love that 😂
I keep my jeans for 4-5 years. Buy clothes only when needed.
Never thought of it that way😂😂😂🙌🏼🙌🏼
Me to I have about roughly 29 peices of clothing..I mix and match..because I rather spend my money on other things.
A man of culture i see....
Loved this, lots of things to think about. I remember being in The Gap about 15 or so years ago, they were running a huge sale. There was a teen girl there with her mother and there literally was a pile of clothing they were going to purchase, sitting at the cash register. Probably more clothes than most people would buy in a year. And it just keeps getting worse. I love the way he took the facts and figures and made it memorable. Definitely will make me think about how often I purchase, what I purchase and what I do with it after. Bravo!
So glad I'm a broke uni student so I can't afford new clothes every week.
Same ahaha it makes it easier
Bruh, I can barely afford new clothes either. Come to Nigeria and buy clothes like this one!! They still kinda expensive tho! :(

Hasan: Zara and H&M are affordable fast fashion..
Me: Where?!?
H&M is affordable but I always thought Zara was one of those pricier but higher quality stores.
David Walker that’s what I asked!! LMAOOOOO
Zara is very affordable in spain
@@clantaron how much it costs in Spain? In India,very expensive
Zara is considered high end clothes in Viet Nam and is crazy expensive here, to put it into perspective, one piece of clothes from Zara can easily be 10 times more expensive than the same design from a local store, obviously the quality is higher, but not enough to warrant such price
Therapist: What do we do when we are sad?
Me: ADD TO CART
Therapist: NOOO
underrated
We need to make more clothes out of natural fabrics and keep them longer.
True. Wool can even reduce emisions of green house gases and fertelize ground but only provided it is from regenerative farming like the one highlanders in Poland do. Wool also has anti-bacterial properties
"I can't believe a kid made this" that hit different.

I feel a little better about wearing the same clothes since high school.
I have plenty of Old Navy tees from high school over 10 years old and still looks good. Clothes arent made well anymore
😅😅 me too..I was feeling a bit relieved..that m not a part of destroying the world IN THIS CASE!!
@M A that's a good life u re having..🙂 better than this SHOW OFF world..
when comedians are pivoting the change in world.
They aren't. You still have to do shit
Yeah, a bunch of pseudo sickulars acting like they are comedians but instead pursuing a propaganda.
It's not propaganda. If you make more clothes and throw them out in a few weeks that creates a lot of waste. That's a fact. And since more clothes are made they use more resources. Again simple fact. They are producing more because we want more, but that will produce more waste than the previous system
education and entertainment combined.
I am from a rich western country (Austria). I wear my clothes usually for 10-20 years until they fall apart. Sadly most people indeed do yearly and actually monthly shopping. But I see a change in attitude recently. There are more and more second hand shops becoming hip. Thanks for increasing awareness.
I do the same :)
Holy shit, I’ve been part of the solution this whole time. My clothes last me a long time, we pretty much pass down our clothes that don’t fit to each other, We mend other clothes into something new, and sometimes we buy stuff at the thrift stores (hey there are some cute shit there, sometimes). So I feel a little better, I may not be rocking new clothes each week but I still look fly.
and if the cloth is still clean, use them as cleaning rags and doormats! sometimes we girls take the goodlooking old clothes and make doll dresses.
Twice a year, my girlfriends and I comb through our closets. We bag items we are done with then pass the bags around our circle. I love to sew and upcycle my clothing. I shop second hand stores but find that sometimes their idea of a quality item is way over priced for something that was donated. I used hold a cloth sale twice a year when I worked at a hotel. We had 40 women sign up to sell their own clothing etc for a one day sale. It was amazing. I'd sell enough articles & reinvest my money purchasing from the other sellers. Left over clothing was either packed back up and taken home or the seller had the choice of donating it to the Canadian Diabetes Association. They in turn sell it & get paid by the pound. We stopped holding the sales when my friend who helped me wanted to concentrate on starting her family. She & her husband welcomed a son early last January. By then, I had left my job at the Hotel. We were allowed to use the ballroom at no charge. Each seller paid $20. That money was spent renting clothing racks, advertising and snacks etc.
@@veronamartin5285 You are brilliant. I have clothes I got from a couple of similar sales years ago. I'm still wearing most of them.
Giiiiirl!! Same! My sister and I trade clothes and buy them mostly from thrift stores! My wardrobe is mostly hand me downs and I’ve had most of them for so long because I wear them a lot and wash them less! I even handwash some of them so they can last longer!
I found a beautiful Prada black skirt at Goodwill years ago for $4.00. I didn't even know what Prada was, just thought it was a nice looking skirt that was well made. It is a hit or miss, but if you look enough on a regular basis, you will find something worth buying.
So glad that Hasan is talking about this issue.

Well my mom is eco-friendly…..she buys a way bigger clothes that will fit me in coming 3 years. I dont have to shop for that 3 years after the future-fit clothes😂♥️ happy to know i use clothes to it’s full extent 😄 I can say i am eco-friendly not poor
On the other hand you were rocking oversized clothes before it became mainstream
Hassan: buy one item second hand
Me: wearing my cousins bra because she grew out of it.
My mom: added two extra hooks to the same bra when I grew fatter and had me wear it for additional years

maybe NOT 'undergarments' so much though? just sayin...

There is one article of clothing that I will spend a lot of money on. A well fitting bra.
It is the most important article of clothing you can wear.
All my clothes can be 5, 10, 20, even 30 years old, but everything looks good, whether it is an old T-shirt, or a fancy new T-shirt, you look great. I only buy clothing I really like and which fits well, and then I wear it until it’s falling off me, and then I might wear it around the house.
Just one properly fitting nude bra, and one a little less basic, perhaps in black, which you wash with real gentle soap and it never sees the sun, drip dry in shade are the best investment a woman can make. That way they last for years and you get value for money.
Get an actual fitting before buying. 80% of women are wearing the wrong (incorrectly fitting) bra, approximately 70% of woman wear too small a bra and 10% of woman wear too large a bra.
I do also buy a T-shirt bra in nude, but that can be your first nude bra. There are some beautiful bras these days. Not so much here in South Africa, it is better overseas, but it is getting better in South Africa in terms of variety. A fitted swimming costume is also a great idea, although I haven’t invested in one.
Nah, Americans are terrible spendthrifts by the sounds of it. Very few people in Africa can afford even 5 new items of clothing per year, never mind 12 or 68. Zara and H+M is too expensive for most. Perhaps one pair of shoes in 2-3 years. I wear my shoes until it is no longer possible to repair them.
I’m a clothing designer, and legally mimicking other peoples popular designs is rampant. It drives out independent sole proprietors.
Hasan talking about fast fashion stores like “Zara” vs me thinking Zara was high end...I guess I’m just broke 🙁
Zara is expensive 😂😂 I have only 1 item from Zara and I’ve had it for 3 years
In developing countries, Zara is a pretty big deal. (Talking about India here.)

I watched this week’s film, “The Ugly Truth of Fast Fashion” on how horrible the short style enterprise model is so damaging to society and the environment. Hasan Minhaj did a great job at exposing the cruel realities of the cheap fast fashion industry that so many people buy into. I didn’t know that many stores that market to be environmentally friendly are actually fast fashion stores in disguise. It's sad to see how the environment and people are being exploited and abused in horrible conditions in order for people who are more fortunate to be able to buy clothes at a slightly more affordable price. The fact is, people like the constant change of fashion and buying new things is what fuels the fast fashion industry and culture which promotes this work environment. The capability of these companies to exploit people through predatory tactics is scary to think about because of the power and wealth that they hold. The people working in these conditions have no other choice but to work and these companies are taking advantage of this fact. The environmental problems caused by this rampant consumerism of clothes is the immense use of water to produce cotton and the materials for these clothes. Before this film, I didn’t know that so many people don’t even use 1/2 of the garments they currently bought more than three times which is crazy to think about. One thing that I have been starting to do is to thrift for clothes instead of buying new clothes. Watching these films and learning from this course has solidified my view that lifestyle changes are the first steps towards climate action. I enjoyed watching this week’s film and I hope that more people will be exposed to the issues created by our clothing lifestyle.
I wish youtubers and their hauls talk about this issue...
It would hurt their income so obviously most wont 🤐
Well, we viewers can ask for it

i have H&M t-shirts that are 10 years old and are still decent.
i bought 3 t-shirt from H&M this year and they already have holes
This problem is happening with every line out there. Clothes are made so poorly these days. The fabric is so thin and flimsy that they can't stand up against repeated washes. This is done on purpose so that you will throw it away quickly and then go out to buy new clothing. It's a scam. A legal scam. I still have shirts from Old Navy from twenty year ago that have not faded or sprouted holes. Their shirts used to be built to last. Not so much any more. You can say you want to keep on wearing your new clothing longer but you can't because the clothing, themselves, won't let you.
@@mekkio77 was that how they used up so much water during production? The fabrics was already got in contact with so much water so it can no longer hold by just a few times of washing process each time it worn.
