12: Why high-end fashion is more sustainable
Have you ever considered that the more we paid for our products, the more durable they were? In fact, higher-end clothing tends to be intrinsically more sustainable.
In this episode, you’ll learn three specific reasons why high-quality clothing is better for the planet!
PS: I came to the decision that this episode would be the last for a little while. With my second baby coming by the end of March, I have to learn to prioritize the crucial tasks that need to get done before she’s born!

10: Why fast fashion will never be sustainable
We see a lot of green initiatives among fast fashion brands. And sure it’s cute and all, but these types of actions are NOT going to make a real difference. Like ever.
The very business model of fast fashion is a broken strategy. And you’ll find out why in this episode.
I hope it serves you!

9: Why cotton is so polluting (and why we only use certified organic cotton)
Did you know that traditional cotton is just as damaging to the planet as polyester? Its heavy use of water, pesticides and other chemicals makes it a highly polluting fiber.
It’s not because it’s natural that it’s eco-friendly. Far from that!
Listen to today’s episode to learn why and to be more equipped to recognize the right type of cotton (AKA organic cotton!).

8: How to use the Guppyfriend microplastic washing bag
I’m showing you all the juicy details on how to properly use your microplastic washing bag to make sure you preserve the quality of your clothes while minimizing your environmental impact.
The Guardian states that microplastic fibers are one of the biggest environnemental problems out there. We better hurry up in the quest for better oceans and a better planet!
Using a microplastic washing bag takes virtually NO extra time, and will ensure healthy waters for the animals (and for us fish eaters).
To welcome the Guppyfriend washing bag on our online store, we offer 10% OFF all of our recycled plastic bottle pieces when you purchase a Guppyfriend washing bag. The promo takes place from July 22-26th, 2020. Check it out here.
