Bringing awarenessNow that you've educated yourself, it's time for you to educate others. Spread the word around to your local community - there are so many ways to do so. You can make your own blog and website, start a club at your school, share an article you read on your Twitter, or revamp your own clothes. Make sure that whatever you do, it gives a voice to the problems that we and the environment face with the clothing industry. Involve as many of others you can. You and your friends can set up a day to swap your clothes or hold a DIY event in your neighborhood. Sign petitions to protect garment laborers and their basic rights and to persuade companies to become transparent in how they are processing each of the clothes we wear. There are endless possibilities to apply what you learn to your community.

Change will not come overnight, but it will eventually arrive at our door with a dramatic appearance if we are persistent in what we do.
