Hello! How are you? Let’s begin with a short revision of what we have seen until now…
1) Complete the sentences with the correct COMPARATIVE form of the adjective in brackets.
The Atlantic ocean garbage patch is _____________________ (BIG) the one in the Pacific ocean.
Cleaning up rivers is _______________________ (DIFFICULT) keeping them clean.

Where does the garbage go after we throw it out? Do you know?
Are we producing a lot of waste?
*Sustainability = sustentabilidad (relacionado con la capacidad que tiene una sociedad para hacer un uso consciente y responsable de sus recursos, sin agotarlos o exceder su capacidad de renovación)
3) Read this fragment of an article about FAST FASHION and sustainability and then answer the T or F:
Fast fashion is a design, manufacturing, and marketing method focused on quickly producing high volumes of clothing. Clothes production uses trend replication and low-quality materials in order to sell inexpensive styles to the public. These cheaply made, trendy pieces resulted in a tendency to very big amounts of consumption. Unfortunately, this results in harmful impacts on the environment, garment workers, and, ultimately, consumers’ wallets.

Brands like Zara, for example, use toxic chemicals, dangerous dyes (tinturas), and synthetic fabrics (telas) that get into water supplies, and, each year, 11 million tons of clothing is thrown out in the US alone. These clothes—full of plastic, pesticides, and countless other chemicals—rarely decompose (go back into the earth) and they are almost never recycled. Instead, they sit in landfills (basureros), releasing toxins into the air and the earth. Fast fashion is one of the most polluting industries in the world.
True or False
Fast Fashion is good for the planet.
The consequences of Fast Fashion affect only people.
Millions of tons of pieces of clothing get thrown in the garbage every year around the world.
Fast Fashion clothes are not recyclable.
