What is the carbon footprint of your clothes?

About the lecture: Teresa Domenech Aparisi will use evidence to assess the carbon footprint of fashion, address why fast fashion is problematic and identify ways to decarbonise your wardrobe. Following on from this, Jo Hale will look at ways to extend the lifetime of our clothes (reuse, repair and repurpose), including presenting research into barriers and enablers on these behaviours, and strategies for changing behaviour.
