This week’s Streets of Your Town takes you into the world of fast and slow fashion, and what we can all do to lessen the burden of clothes waste on the world.
Have you ever looked down at what you’re wearing, or into your wardrobe, and wondered where those materials came from? Who made your outfit, and at what cost to them compared to the cost you paid for it?
Or pondered what the true cost of that bargain t-shirt is when fast fashion wastage is taken into account?
These questions are what drive sustainability consultant Jane Milburn on her quest to get as many people as possible thinking about the way they dress, and how to make better choices to become independent of fast fashion.
She tells us on Streets of Your Town how low cost unethical clothes are creating waste and pollution and contributing to modern day slavery.
