We need to push back just as strongly on doomerism as we do on denial because they both accomplish exactly the same thing: inaction. As @CFigueres says, “we are only ever as doomed as we believe ourselves to be.”

More people are campaigning for a system where garments are circulated for as long as possible. @Ineedsacookie via @NZStuff talked to four fashion insiders and businesses in Aotearoa heading sustainable change in their own way. stuff.co.nz/life-style/ensem… #Sustainable #Mindfulness

These clothes are made out of old car airbags! Ryohei Kawanishi, graduate of @csm_news in London, hopes that wearing a recycled car component will encourage genuine interest in sustainable fashion. scmp.com/lifestyle/fashion-b… #sustainablefashion

Last xmas, a @consumernz investigation into sustainable fashion claims resulted in 4 brands removing their claims after they couldn’t back them up. For @kowtowclothing, sustainability standards still matter. thespinoff.co.nz/business/01… #sustainablefashion #standardsmatter

Can you be eco-friendly and still shop fast fashion? “What comes before habit change and societal value change has to be legislation and education in partnership,” - Ella Martin, @Sustinnoworx stuff.co.nz/life-style/style… #legislation #education #partnership

Where do things go once they're returned? @FairGoNZ & @consumernz tracked what happened when they returned 'faulty' food mixers to four stores. Only one of four mixers were repaired & resold, the others ending up at the landfill or broken down for parts fb.watch/dMJkGh1Xq0/

Is the fashion trend cycle out of control?🤔 The circularity of trends isn’t at all new - what has ramped up is the speed with which we as a culture are cycling through aesthetics. This is especially true in the online space, such as on TikTok 👉 stuff.co.nz/life-style/style… #fashion

Ultra-fast fashion brand Shein has pledged $15 million for textile waste workers in Ghana. Although this will do little to address the root cause of the problem (never-ending production of ultra-fast fashion), is it still deserving of praise?👉 theguardian.com/global-devel… #buyless
