Sloooow down, fashion

Bombarded by clothing hauls, dupes, and deals on social media? It’s become all too easy to stuff your closet. Clothing companies produce cheap, trendy clothing in massive quantities, influencers say you NEED a certain item, and it can be purchased and delivered to your front door with one click. We often think of smoke stacks and gas-guzzling trucks when we think of climate change causes, but the clothes we wear and our buying habits are increasingly becoming part of the climate problem. In this episode, we’ll discuss the harmful effects of fast fashion and how we can dress cute while still taking care of the earth.
