'If you love H&M and Zara I'm sorry- you're going to hate this episode,' warns Minhaj.

Setting aside the questionable working conditions and practices at many of the factories where these cheap goods are churned out, Minhaj focuses on the environmental impact of fast fashion. In a snappy 30-minute episode, he lays out some sobering numbers and stats from recent reports.

He also touches on the “greenwashing” tactics employed by fast fashion companies to make it seem like they’re more environmentally conscious than they really are, and looks closer at some of the materials and fabrics used by these popular brands to help sustain their weekly merchandise drops. Words like "green," "eco-friendly," and "sustainable" are pretty much meaningless when it comes to fast-fashion brands.
