Clothing dyes not only pollute the water, they’re an enormous source of carbon emissions. Citizens of Humanity is now investing in carbon-conscious dyes.
If you’re environmentally conscious, you’re likely aware that dying clothes is bad for the planet. In China and Bangladesh, rivers near manufacturing hubs run black due to dyes that pollute and poison the water. But it gets worse. Dyes also accelerate global warming: 99% of all dyes are made using fossil fuels, and producing them emits 200 million tons of carbon dioxide every year.
