Remaking Fashion: Fossil-Free and Feminist - Sophia Yang

from Reseed · host Alice Irene Whittaker

How do we remake fashion so that it is regenerative, fossil-free, inclusive, and equitable? Fashion and textiles are where climate change, waste, labour rights, and social justice all come together. Every single one of us interacts with clothing in our everyday lives, and fashion is currently one of Earth’s most polluting industries. We have an opportunity to remake our fashion system, so that it becomes the fertile ground for thriving local economies, creative expression, and circular loops that keep us in balance within nature’s boundaries.  Sophia Yang, Founder and Executive Director of Threading Change, joins Reseed host Alice Irene Whittaker for a conversation about fashion, justice, gender, circular economy, and climate - and how they all weave together. Read the transcript and show notes at reseed.ca.
