The Monster In Our Closet, Patagonia’s new short film.

The California-based brand recently unveiled a new short film related to awareness of the harms of plastic in the apparel industry.

The problem in making durable, high-performance garments is the current essentiality of plastics, which are contributing to an accelerating environmental crisis. The harm lies not only in the material, often derived from fossil fuels, but also in the accumulation of plastic once the garments are thrown away.

To track the process of eliminating plastic in the apparel industry Patagonia has launched The Monster in Our Closet, a short film that chronicles the processes that link apparel and oil and gas companies. In addition, the short also takes stock of what we can do to improve the situation at the individual, corporate, and governmental levels.
