income and are more likely to spend on clothing when the economy is strong.
High unemployment can reduce consumer spending power, reducing H&M's sales.

Climate change may have a number of consequences for H&M's business. It can, for example, affect the availability and cost of
raw materials, particularly cotton, a water-intensive crop.
Many consumers are becoming more environmentally conscious and looking for environmentally friendly products. This may
have an impact on consumer perceptions of H&M and purchasing decisions.
