Fiorella and Sonja from The Positive Fashion Club talk about sustainability and education.
Last week, our collaborator Gisela Villasevil Pau invited us to participate in her radio program “Sostenibilitat amb Gisela” on Ràdio Molins de Rei. It was a very interesting conversation in which we talked about the importance of, as consumers, informing ourselves about what we buy, what is “sold” to us, the real cost of “fast fashion,” the need to slow down consumption, and alternatives such as clothing exchange or buying second-hand.
We also talked about our project, The Positive Fashion Club, and the important role of educating future generations, especially before they develop unsustainable consumption habits that are more challenging to change as adults.
Did you know that it takes up to 10,000 liters of water to manufacture a pair of jeans?
Did you know that the textile industry (clothing, towels, curtains, upholstery, etc.) is the SECOND most polluting industry today, behind petroleum? (it has just moved up one position)
Do you know where the clothing you discard ends up?
Do you want to start being aware and contribute your bit to this much-needed change?
