What can you do to promote slow fashion? A list of resources

Hey guys! I'm a freelance climate writer & my aim is to make information about sustainability and what we can do to help the planet accessible & easy to understand.

I thought I would share a list I wrote in September, of the resources to learn more and do more about the fast fashion crisis! Hope this is interesting to some of you :)

LEARN MORE

TRY SOMETHING NEW

  • Use the Good On You app to see how ethical your favourite fashion brands are & find sustainable brands to support.
  • Read: 10 easy ways to make your wardrobe a bit more sustainable.
  • Sign up to Secondhand September, a free campaign run by international anti-poverty charity Oxfam to encourage people to avoid buying any new clothes for a month. It's not September now but that doesn't mean you can't get involved anyway ;) Share your pledge on social media to spread the word!

CHANGE THE SYSTEM

  • Check out ethical fashion advocacy organisation Fashion Revolution who have created a page on how citizens can support their work to push for laws to make fashion production greener & fairer.
  • Slow Fashion Season was a campaign running until the 21st September, but there’s never a bad time to get involved. Pledge to join the movement, and follow and share @slowfashionseason on Instagram.
  • Follow the UN Fashion Alliance on social media to keep up-to-date and support action for ethical fashion happening at the global level.

Anyway, this was a super-long post but I hope it was interesting and if you have any other resources, please share! Also if you like this, I post a new email every 2 weeks about a different topic of climate action on my newsletter. The next one is on sustainable development :)
