Regenerating Our Textile Systems

04/29/2020

Learn how we can meet urgent climate goals through regenerating relationships between production and consumption

Join Fibershed for a 4-part webinar series to catalyze change in your business, supply relationships, and the broader community. Learning outcomes include:

  • Defining regeneration in social and environmental contexts
  • Understanding our capacity to regenerate Earth’s biomes
  • Activating the role of textile designers and brands in creating materials that take responsibility for the legacy load of carbon in the atmosphere
  • Using holism to avoid life cycle “leakages” and externalized costs to our environment and relationships
  • Embracing biomimicry and why decentralization is key to truly circular economies
  • Learning from “regrettable solutions” — what microplastic pollution can teach us about material design
  • Taking a whole supply chain perspective: What are we typically measuring, and what is missing?
  • Building direct relationships: the value of committing to supply networks from soil to soil
  • Becoming an advocate within your organization and community
