Fashion. It impacts our lives every single day, from the moment we wake up and decide what to put on, to the pyjamas we wear at night. But have you thought about who made your clothes? Where do they come from? What’s the impact of their production and transportation on the environment and communities around the world?As the COP26 summit approaches, numerous reports continue to show the sizeable contribution of the fashion industry on climate change.The time has come for the fashion industry to radically cut emissions, improve efficiencies in supply chains, help adapt and transition local communities, finance the change and collaborate with others to facilitate rapid innovation. And it's not just the big industry players that can drive this transition.We all have a role to play in bringing about this change.In our 2-part podcast on Sustainable Fashion, we’ll talk to industry experts on what we, as individuals, as well as small businesses, NGOs, and policy makers can do to transform the fashion industry! This week on the A Moment of Change podcast we’re joined by Sabinna Rachimova, a fashion business founder (Sabinna), consultant and lecturer to discuss sustainable fashion and what we can all do to make a difference.
