3. Naked for Nature: When Naturism Meets Environmentalism

from Beyond the Fig Leaf: Stories of Social Nudity · host Dr. Morgan Ash

Could taking off your clothes be an act of environmental activism? This episode uncovers the surprisingly deep connection between naturism and ecological sustainability. We explore how clothing can act as a barrier—both physically and psychologically—between humans and the natural world. Then we dig into the environmental toll of fast fashion, from pollution to water consumption, and how naturism offers a radical alternative. And of course, we spotlight the World Naked Bike Ride, a global protest movement where unclothed cyclists advocate for cyclist safety, body acceptance, and environmental consciousness—all in one bold ride.
