The fashion industry is one of the most environmentally impactful industrial sectors in the world. This is particularly true for the fast fashion industry, which relies on cheap manufacturing, impulsive consumer buying, and poor-quality garments. Environmental flash points in textile and fashion value chain include significant water use, chemical pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and textile waste. Social flash points include exploitative labor practices and excessive waste increasingly shipped to landfills in rural low- and middle-income countries. This case study develops a new methodology—Intersectional Life Cycle Assessment (I-LCA)—to highlight amplifying feedback loops joining Environmental Life Cycle Assessment (E-LCA) and Social Life Cycle assessment (S-LCA). Our goal is to identify innovations for the study of the fashion industry as well as the fashion industry itself.
