Green vs. Eco-friendly vs. Sustainable The meaning of the word “green” has been used to refer to almost anything related to benefiting the environment, from the movements to structures and fashion design.. While many see "green" and "sustainable" as being interchangeable sustainable is much more specific and refers to the scope of environmental issues and activities that, according to the United Nations, do not compromise the ability of future generations to meet their needs. Sustainability is a focus on the future and how we impact it with any item or action adding to our environmental, social and economic benefits, or whether or not the development of a product is using up resources and causing pollution. Compared to ‘”green” sustainability is much more specific and demands more requirements to be met before an item is labeled sustainable For instance, a product made from renewable resources is considered green, yet if a life-cycle analysis shows that it required a lot of energy to manufacture and ship to you, and if there isn’t a proper way to dispose of the product, then it’s not considered sustainable. While its difficult for a product to be 100% sustainable in the development process when considering, product planning, manufacturing, delivery, life of the item, and recycling of the item, there are still more sustainable choices than those found in fast fashion.
