In today’s episode, I’m chatting with my friend Juliet Russell, who is the Head of Sustainability at Stella McCartney. I met Juliet a few years ago when we were both working at PANGAIA, and ever since I’ve been learning so much from her on the impact of fashion on the planet, and how we can work towards a less harmful approach to how we produce and consume fashion. We spoke about fashion’s impact on nature, material innovation, and the hope she finds in regenerative agriculture as a solution to both the climate and biodiversity crises. We also touched on how she manages to connect with nature while living in Central London, and what she does to keep her climate anxiety at bay. Want to dive deeper?

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation has really good resourcesConsider the impact of what you wear, reflect on all the work and resources that went into the creation of any garment you’re about to purchase (or discard!)Avoid leather and animal products where you can – consider alternatives or second hand Be mindful of your consumption, only buy things that you know you’ll love and wear for a long time, consider second-hand and rentalTake the time to connect with nature in little ways throughout your day eg. go for a walk in the park without your phone Juliet’s recommendations The Power of Now - Eckhart Tolle https://www.wob.com/en-gb/books/eckhart-tolle/power-of-now/9780340733509 Little links Juliet on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/julesarussell/Why We Care on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/whywecarepodcast/Tiphaine on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/tiphainemarie_/ If you enjoyed the episode and want to help the podcast, I would be super grateful if you could leave a little review or share it with a friend who might like it.
