It's epsiode #75 of Climate+ Podcast with guest Phoebe Tan, co-founder of Taelor, a men's clothing rental service that's revolutionizing how we think about our wardrobes and tackling one of the world's most wasteful industries.
The conversation explores the stark reality of fashion waste, where the average American throws away 81 pounds (37 kg!) of clothing annually, and dives into how Taelor's model extends garment lifecycles while reducing environmental impact. Phoebe reveals fascinating insights about changing consumer behavior, the true cost and value of our clothing, and her vision for making circular fashion accessible through both direct-to-consumer and B2B partnerships. It's an inspiring look at how innovation and sustainability can transform not just our closets, but our entire approach to consumption.
