Eco-fashion on CNN

There was an interesting piece on eco-fashion on CNN’s website the other day, including a mention of the legal dispute between Target and bag manufacturer Timbuk2 resulting from the use of recycled shopping bags in these messenger bags.

Green fashion is starting to hit the mainstream in a big way, and while it’s exciting, there are certainly some issues to watch out for. When green becomes trendy, can it stay truly eco-friendly?

One Response to “Eco-fashion on CNN”

Yeah, you know, everyone is for saving the earth–as long as they get their cut of the profits. Ugh.
