Solving an Unfashionable Problem - a podcast by Biotechnology Innovation Organization

The fashion industry is notoriously wasteful. As the climate crisis becomes more of everyone’s problem, scientists and designers are combining efforts to make fashion more sustainable. From using greenhouse gasses to create new materials to developing totally biodegradable clothing and accessories, big fashion houses are trying to produce sustainable materials and make fashion look good and feel great.

Jennifer Holmgren, CEO of LanzaTech

Alejandra Espinosa, head of content at Luxiders Magazine

Bridgett Artise, sustainable fashion designer and professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology
