The fashion industry is booming, and is leaving an astonishing trail of environmental and social repercussions in its wake. Pollution, water-use, carbon emissions, microplastics, human rights and gender equality are all impacted by the clothes we choose to buy. As consumers, we can play a huge role by re-considering our shopping habits and advocating for a shift in how we approach fashion, to incorporate more sustainable practices.
Chaired by Green Ambassador Country Sponsor for Indonesia, Jodi West, join Anthony Chesler, CEO of Thread Together, to learn more about the impact of clothing manufacturing and the problem of excess fashion, and what they are doing to tackle it. We’ll also hear from Nina Gbor of Eco Styles, who will talk about how we can turn the tide at national, community and individual levels. She will inspire you to re-think your fashion consumption habits with a restyling demonstration, to help you get more out of your wardrobe, to reduce clothing waste from going to landfill.
