         <title>What is the impact of fast fashion on China</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The textile/fashion industries are the reason as to why there are these environmental problems in China. To produce one pair of jeans uses 920 gallons of water and release 32 kg of carbon dioxide, which leads to the textiles industry using 3.27% of the water available to the human race every year. The dyes and chemicals that they use are toxic and have extreme effects on the environment, and to humans as well. Some chemicals cause intestinal cancer, change the gender of a fish, and some never break down making the river permanently polluted. By buying and consuming what the fashion industry supplies, we increase the demand, and therefore the production rates of textiles.</div>]]></description>
