Good afternoon.I am Karry Wang from China. It is a great honor to be here with you today, and speak about the 17 sustainable development goals launched by the United Nations in 2015. These goals have become the beacon of national efforts all across the earth.
The fashion industry is crucial to achieving sustainable development goals. Every consumer's choice in the fashion field has an impact on our future. Fashion is not something that is found in dress only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, and in the mind. Fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, the way we think, and what is happening around the world. It is closely related to every country and everyone.
For example: We can save water by choosing natural pigments instead. And we can even make full use of recycled materials to lead new fashion trends in our daily lives. If we can consciously change consumption behaviour and have sustainable lifestyles, then it's new fashion.
Today, we are about to witness the launch of The United Nations Alliance for Sustainable Fashion, which I believe will give fashion a whole new mission, and build a platform for discussion and engagements of sustainable fashion. More institutions and brands across the world can be involved, contributing to the achievement of sustainable development goals.
Now, I ask you: please team up with me to advocate for and support sustainable fashion, and secure a better, sustainable future for people and our planet.
