Five Ways you can put People and the Planet First

oin the Movement

On 22nd April, individuals from all walks of life come together in a global effort to progress climate action and sustainability, marking the annual celebration of Earth Day.

This year, organisers of Earth Day are calling for widespread climate education as an integral step forward in the journey to fight climate change. Bryce Coon, Director of Education for Earth Day, emphasises how just a spark of global momentum can propel forward our efforts to address climate change, now and in the near future, by promoting behaviour change in the next generation.

Whether you represent a global organisation or a local consumer, each of us has a part to play. From fighting fast fashion to hosting a clean-up, we have put together a small but mighty list of actions you can take to put people and planet first.

1: Fight Fast Fashion

Fashion is regarded as a reflection of culture. But what does it say about our current culture when the impacts of fashion can ravage our environment and endanger our own lives? It seems one of the fastest things about ‘fast fashion’ is the speed in which we reach a moral and ethical dead end.

The fast fashion industry operates on a “race to the bottom” model to produce the largest number of garments at the smallest price. With cheap production, lowered costs and an implicit yet superficial and dangerous pressure from society to constantly consume clothing, the facts behind fast fashion are staggering:

  • Every year, 100 billion garments are produced.
  • From 100 billion garments, 87% end up in landfills or incinerators and only 1% is recycled.
  • Sixty nine per cent of clothes are made from crude oil and washing them accounts for 35% of microplastics in the ocean.

Our relationship with fashion must change. We must divorce the unsustainable ideology of hyperconsumption that many of us possess and fashion a better world by embracing slow style, celebrating handmade artistry and being connected to the makers of our products.

Here’s how:

You can thrift

‘Thrifting’ or charity shopping is a great way to give a new lease of life to our clothes. By donating your unwanted clothes, you will create space in your home, support charities and help the planet. By buying from charity shops, you will also be helping the planet, as well as finding unique and vintage styles at a very fair price.

You can support Shared Interest

Shared Interest uses the investments of our members to transform the lives of farmers and craftspeople across the globe. Ethical fashion retailers such as Mata Traders and Allpa are examples of two buyer customers we support with fair finance.

Mata Traders work with member-owned women’s co-operatives and artisan groups that follow Fair Trade Principles. By bringing traditional fabrics to a global audience, they support the family businesses of weavers and block printers throughout India and Nepal whose livelihoods have been threatened by the shift of textile production to the factory. We have supported Mata Traders with finance since 2010.

Meanwhile, Allpa are Peruvian artisans specialising in jewellery, textiles, ceramics and wood. Allpa has benefited from an export credit facility with Shared Interest since 2014. As less than 10% of Allpa sales are local, Shared Interest finance is a lifeline for the organisation.

You can sign Earth Day’s petition

Take a brief moment to sign this online petition to demand political action and create regulations to protect the environment and our health against the crises posed by the fast fashion industry.
