It surprised me a bit when I first read “Technology is essentially the prime enabler that allows sustainable fashion to thrive and develop today.” I know technology has infiltrates almost every aspect of our life now. But I didn’t expect it can play such an important role in sustainable fashion. When I heard about sustainable products, I usually pay more attention to what material or resource they use instead of what technology they are using. And it’s interesting when people see if something is made of reusable resource, many of them have a default agreement that this is a sustainable product. As Sarah Scaturro introduces her bamboo fiber sweather in the article, even though using bamboo is considered as ecological friendly. However, it covers the fact that the chemical process it goes through is actually damaging the environment. It reminds me of the lego botanical elements made from sugarcane. Sustainable sourced plastic is what they’ve stressed so much. But is it realy eco-friendly product? Then I read this article saying that “For the moment, much of the expansion for sugarcane crops has been resigned to degraded and pasture lands… the increased use of fungicides, insecticides, and herbicides“. I would like to say lego is defenitely going in the right direction but maybe not a final solution. All in all, technology is a double-edged sword, and it is also a really sharp sword. Scaturro has a positive attitude toward the relationship between tech and sustainable fashion. And I agree with that instead of denying the current tech values, it’s important we should change the meanings and manifestations of tech from inside.
