The Science Behind Your Intuition & How Things Get Made

There's then all of the processing of the cotton requiring even more water. There's then the producing of the weaving and then the dyeing of the textile to make it in to give it that nice denim colour. There's then all the process of cutting and sewing to make the pair of jeans and we then put them back in to rewash them again to give them a distressed look.

So a simple thing like a pair of jeans has an extraordinary story of energy and water consumption behind it. So you might say, well, I'll just buy better jeans. I'll only source naturally grown cotton. I'll only use, you know, the indigo dye that's been sourced from a... an appropriate source.

But you and I, none of us, we don't really have the time to look at every single product in the store and go, can I work out whether these genes are actually the best ones for the planet? So we have to rely on other people. We have to trust our judgment. And one of the good things about...

The world of manufacturing at the moment is that most companies are actually really quite keen for us to know how a product has been made because they know sooner or later, if they're doing a bad thing, someone's going to find out about it. So the visibility we now have of the iPhone supply chain, of the Levi supply chain, of all of the supply chains of products is a really positive thing.

It gives us a sense that we understand where these products have come from. Another example is electric vehicles and batteries. Just extraordinary where many of us strongly believe that electric vehicles are absolutely the way forward. Not everyone agrees. Others can see there's a long future for petrol cars and maybe even hydrogen vehicles.

But at the moment, there's a movement that says electric vehicles are good. But if you break down the supply chain of an electric vehicle, and you go right the way back to saying not just how's the car built, how are the components made, but how are the batteries made? Where do the materials come from in that battery?

And it doesn't take you long to trace it all the way back to a small number of countries where they're mining things like cobalt And we don't really always know how safe, how worker-friendly those mines were. And there's some really quite bad stories about what happens in some of those very, very, very distant mines way, way down the supply chain.
