S2 Ep01 - Is there really plastic in my clothes? with Robyn Zink
The lure of cheap garments and fast fashion trends is reshaping how we tailor our wardrobes. Today, the average shopper buys 60% more garments and wears them for only half as long as they did 15 years ago.
That’s a recipe for a landfill full of fabric. With synthetic fibres threaded through so many clothes, the environmental and personal health impacts are hard to unpick.
In this episode, we unravel the issue and patch together what it means for our community with Robyn Zink.
