Introduction to the Book-Sustainable Solutions in Textiles and Fashion
摘要
The textile and fashion industry, one of the largest and most influential sectors in the global economy, is also recognized as a major contributor to environmental degradation, resource depletion, and social inequities. Against this backdrop, the concept of sustainability has emerged as a critical framework for reimagining the future of textiles and fashion. Sustainability in this context can be defined as the holistic practice of designing, producing, distributing, and consuming textile and fashion products in ways that balance economic growth with environmental stewardship and social responsibility, ensuring that the needs of the present are met without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own.
