Task 1
1. In photo A, people are shopping in a sale, in a high street clothes shop. In photo B people 
are bringing clothes to a place with thrown away/unwanted clothes. 
2. People buy a lot of new clothes and then throw many of them away. days we produce around 25 million tons of it every year. Growing and producing cotton uses 
a lot of water. It’s difficult to believe how much as this survey in the city centre shows. To 
make just one pair of jeans you need  how many litres? 
‘One thousand, two thousand, three thousand, four thousand, five thousand, fifteen 
thousand 5 hundred and twenty tree.’
‘No way!’ 
And for a pair of jeans and a shirt you need 
‘Nineteen, twenty, twenty thousand five hundred litres.’
‘What?’
We all love to shop, but how often do we think of fashion’s effect on the environment? 
‘How many pairs of jeans do you have?’
‘Probably about six or eight.’
‘Six or eight. You know, to put it frankly, cotton is responsible for one of the biggest 
environmental catastrophes that we’ve seen today on planet earth.’
This is the catastrophe that Lucy is talking about. This area was once the Aral Sea on the 
border of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. Sixty-eight thousand square kilometres of water. The 
Aral Sea had an important fishing industry and was popular with tourists too, but in the 
1960s people began growing cotton in this region. They changed the direction of some 
rivers so that the water went to the cotton farms and not into the sea. Ninety per cent of 
the Aral Sea gradually disappeared and became desert like this. Cotton farming and the 
clothes industry have caused the problems of this region. 
Perhaps it’s time for all of us to change our shopping habits. We need to stop and think 
about what fast fashion is doing to the planet.
