WHAT DO YOUR FAVOURITE SPORTSWEAR BRANDS DO WITH THEIR DYE WATER?


What do your favourite sportswear brands do with their toxic dye water?

Local rivers and lakes in Asian countries change colour to match your clothing after western brands simply wash away untreated dye water, causing widespread pollution to people and the environment.

Golf Refugees 2014 apparel recycle 90% of its dye water. The other 10% is lost through evaporation.

ONLY FOR PEOPLE WHO GIVE A DAMN


This is Beijing; people actually play golf in Beijing, even tour players have to play there, though they do wear smog masks on the fairways.

China is one of the few expanding areas for golf.

When you manufacture lots of western consumer goods using high polluting coal fired power stations, this is what happens.

It doesn't matter who you are, if you wear and play golf with gear made this way you are part of the problem.

To become part of the solution you could wear golf apparel made by renewable energy which reduces harmful CO2 emissions by 90%.

Golf Refugees 2014 apparel only for people who give a damn.

NATALIE GULBIS IN MASK


Natalie Gulbis In Mask, LPGA tour player

The LPGA – Ladies Professional Golf Association - fully support athletes taking their kit off for publicity shots, unless they wear smog masks. Skimpy clothes are fine, bikinis are fine but a smog mask is a real no no.

Should the LPGA be censoring pictures of golfers wearing smog masks? What is the purpose of their actions? Is it to try and hide the existence of air pollution on the fairways? Smog is not fog, right? Well wrong, the LPGA only recognise ‘fog’.

No one in the world plays golf in smog, really.
