It is indeed a big subject, and we could discuss this for hours. Maybe even a whole season! However, we try to keep it brief and in this episode we will answer some questions such as; What is the deal with our climate and what is sustainability? What does it really mean to be sustainable and how far is the industry from achieving it?</p><br><p>Sandra shares insights from her experience developing sustainability reports,&nbsp;while Ebba discusses the theory behind and frameworks supporting sustainable development. From greenwashing to truly sustainable practices, we’ll talk about the challenges and opportunities for creating a more responsible industry and why it is needed. We will also share some tips on how you can make small changes in making a difference with your wardrobe choices.</p><br><p>Love what you’re hearing?
