Synthetic fabric clothing is not only contaminating our world with microplastics, but it’s also impacting our ability to reproduce. This week on Green Street, Patti and Doug talk about the environmental legacy of war, state efforts to ban artificial food dyes, and what kinds of chemicals are often found in baby mattresses. Then investigative reporter and author Alden Wicker talks about fast fashion, synthetic fabrics, and how our throw-away relationship with cheap clothing is not only exacerbating the worldwide plastic crisis impacting but our own health in ways we never expected.
