Fashion Story | If I Were a Fish…

 

If I were a fish…,

…I would dream with a better world.

Plastic is visibly contaminating Earth’s natural ecosystems, toxifying our oceans and massacring marine wildlife; this is a crisis, a tragedy of the worst kind. Every year, 8 million tons of plastic escape into our oceans and by 2050 this statistic is set to double. But what if we told you that we have a choice. A chance to steer our planet away from a plasticised, apocalyptic vision of the future, and liberate thousands of species from near certain extinction. Don’t keep ignoring reality! Take off the blindfold!
