Two-part Question essay sample (Sustainable fashion)

1.     Can the fashion industry ever be sustainable?

2.     And what can you do (to make it more sustainable)?

 

The ever-growing popularity of Social networking sites has made the fashion industry thrive. Many people post photos of themselves wearing the most popular trends in fashion. However, these clothes often end up in landfills making it the biggest contributor of trash in many fashion-centered countries. This essay will explain why fashion cannot be sustainable and ways on how to make it more eco-friendly.

Many new products nowadays aim for sustainability. Unfortunately, though the world of fashion can never be considered durable. People who live in countries with four seasons need to change their collection of clothes every season. This is where the term ‘fast fashion’ was coined. Clothes that do not fit the season usually are stored in closets or even thrown away. Also, there is a question of preference. Naturally, one fashion style cannot catch the interest of everyone. When clothing companies mass-produce a certain design, it is quite hard to tell if the design will be accepted by many. Some clothes might sell well while others will not. As a result, these clothes will either be recycled, trashed, or in some cases, donated.

As the call for making the fashion business more environmentally friendly is getting more attention, a number of people have been making progress in recycling and ‘upcycling’ clothes. Innovations in the production of some types of wearables have become a hype in some companies, too. There has been news of well-known shoe companies that use waste materials as raw materials for their products. As for each person, the solution is the only discipline. People must only buy clothes that are practical and necessary for daily use. Moreover, it is better if everyone supports fashion icons that promote sustainable living.

Overall, clothes are categorized as a physiological need. It is certainly impossible to completely eliminate the waste produced from it but it can be greatly reduced if we all take part in solving this dilemma.

Cambridge 11 Test 3 Writing Task 1

Sample: The data from the line graph illustrates the carbon dioxide emissions of an average individual per metric tonnes in four European countries every decade from 1967-2007.A closer look at the data highlights the fact that among the 4 nations, the UK has the highest rate in carbon dioxide emissions per person in 40 years. In 1967, there was approximately 11 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide released by an average Englishman which was about ten times higher than the emissions made by an individual from Portugal. However, it can be seen that as time went by, the carbon dioxide emitted by Englishmen decreased gradually to over 8 metric tonnes in 2007. On the other hand, a different trend can be noted in the countries Italy and Portugal where the emissions slowly rose from an initial rate of approximately 4 and 1 metric ton to about 7 and 6 metric tonnes in 4 decades. In Sweden, emissions increased to its record highest in 1977 w...

Please note that in the first part of the test, roughly 12 questions will be asked (3 topics).

Sample: The pie charts represent the rate of distribution of water in three different sectors, industrial, agricultural and domestic, in six places worldwide. Generally speaking, the use of water for agriculture has the highest percentage in almost all areas globally whereas water for household use has the lowest ratio. In central Asia, Africa and South East Asia, more than 80% of their water supply is utilized in the production of food which is almost two times larger than in North America that has a greater need in the industrial consumption of water with 48% respectively. Similarly, Europe distributes over half of their water supply in their industries which is far larger than the 5% rate in Central Asia. Water for household use accounts for less than one-fifths in the overall proportion in all six areas in  the world. This data reveals that water is highly used in the production of both food and other commodities than for domestic purposes.  Wo...
