Sustainability in Everyday Life (Part II)
Listen now
Description
In part II of our discussion of sustainability ♻️ the Science Slot Machine team turns to topics like fashion 💃, new and holistic approaches ♻️, and the usual STS (Science and Technology Studies) spin 🔱. Therefore, scholars like Sheila Jasanoff or Ulrich Brand and their concepts are discussed and put into relation. HUGE shoutout to Ivana Dimitrova 👧🧠 who shared her opinion on and experience with slow fashion. 👗👖  If you are living in Bulgaria and willing to try out the concept of a more sustainable fashion, check out the “Exchange Collective, Майна” community Ivana created. We are also ultra thankful to Katharina Buiten 👩🧠who reminded us about the different approaches towards sustainability and the holistic perspective we could apply to it. 🍀 Don’t forget to look up the digital magazine she represents ➡️ Tech & Nature, dedicated entirely to sustainable news, solutions, and ideas.  Some local sustainability startups 🚀we mention in the episode that you might want to know more about are ➡️ TooGoodToGo, Refurbed, Rebel Meat, ZIRP Insects, and Damn Plastic.
