Dampak Strategi Offshore Outsourcing Dalam Bisnis Fast Fashion Terhadap Degradasi Lingkungan di Bangladesh
Summary
This Indonesian paper examines how offshore outsourcing in fast fashion contributes to environmental degradation in Bangladesh, including water pollution. Fast fashion's synthetic fabrics are a major global source of microplastic fiber pollution in waterways and oceans.
Berkat pengaruhnya yang besar terhadap konsumen di seluruh dunia, fast fashion mungkin adalah istilah yang sangat akrab bagi banyak orang. Meskipun populer, fast fashion juga dikenal sebagai model bisnis yang memiliki rantai pasokan yang sangat rumit. Karena proses rantai pasokan yang kompleks itu, mereka diketahui melakukan praktik yang tidak etis terhadap para pekerjanya dan juga lingkungan. Sayangnya, sebagai satu negara pemasok fast fashion terbesar di dunia, Bangladesh tampaknya tidak keberatan dengan sifat destruktif fast fashion dan menutup mata terhadap dampak yang diciptakan oleh industry tersebut. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan penjelasan tentang bagaimana dinamika offshore outsourcing dalam rantai pasokan fast fashion menyebabkan penurunan kualitas lingkungan Bangladesh melalui sektor pakaian jadi dan bagaimana pemerintah terlibat dalam kasus ini di bawah pengaruh neoliberal menggunakan metode kualitatif dan pendekatan studi kasus. Hasilnya, peneliti menemukan bahwa strategi offshore outsourcing dalam bisnis fast fashion menyebabkan banyak dampak buruk terhadap lingkungan seperti kontaminasi air, polusi udara, dan penumpukan limbah padat di atas permukaan tanah.

The Impact of Fast Fashion on Marine Plastic Pollution
This paper reviews the fast fashion industry's contribution to waterway pollution, explaining that cheap synthetic clothing sheds microplastic fibers during production and washing, and that the industry's rapid growth — especially in Asia — is making this a significant global pollution source. The authors propose manufacturing regulations and consumer behavior change as solutions to reduce the volume of synthetic microfibers entering waterways.
Appalling or Advantageous? Exploring the Impacts of Fast Fashion From Environmental, Social, and Economic Perspectives
This study explored the environmental, social, and economic impacts of fast fashion, finding that while low-cost clothing provides consumer benefits, the industry generates substantial negative externalities including textile microplastic pollution, excessive water use, and exploitative labor conditions in developing countries.
Addressing the Impacts of Textile Industries on Environment and Socio- Economic Condition of Bank Town and Baraigram Area: a Management Perspective
Not a microplastics paper — this study documents the environmental and public health impacts of textile industry effluents on communities and waterways near factories in Bangladesh, focusing on toxic chemical discharge, worker health risks, and the inadequate use of wastewater treatment infrastructure.
Environmental Pollution by the Fast Fashion: Current Status and Prospects
This review examines the environmental footprint of fast fashion — mass clothing production that generates enormous textile waste, synthetic fiber shedding, and water pollution. It is relevant to microplastics because synthetic garment washing is one of the largest sources of microfiber pollution entering waterways, though the paper focuses on industry-level sustainability responses rather than quantifying microplastic release specifically.
The Environmental Impacts of Fast Fashion on Water Quality: A Systematic Review
This systematic review documents how fast fashion contributes to water pollution, including the release of synthetic microfibers — a major source of microplastic contamination. The fashion industry produces about 20% of global wastewater, and these microfibers can end up in drinking water and food sources.
