Description

Rebecca Burgess is the Executive Director of Fibershed, Chair of the Board for Carbon Cycle Institute, and the author of Harvesting Color and Fibershed: Growing a Movement of Farmers, Fashion Activists, and Makers for a New Textile Economy. In our concluding part 2 of our 2-part conversation, Rebecca sheds light on why the real solutions we need for our ecological crises will likely be undervalued and given less attention to (when compared to solutions driven by synthetic biology corporations); how localizing our textile systems can green the fashion industry in ways that a globalized system cannot; and more.   Featured music: Mountain Twin by Joel Porter Episode notes: www.greendreamer.com/210 Weekly solutions-based news: www.greendreamer.com  Support the show: www.greendreamer.com/support  Instagram: www.instagram.com/greendreamerpodcast

If you're a creative, visionary, entrepreneur, or activist SO passionate about sustainability that you're eager to do what you can in your personal life and also with your passion projects dedicated to helping our planet thrive, Green Dreamer with Kaméa Chayne was created for you! There's a lot of doom and gloom in this space, but there's also a lot of good being done by changemakers across all fields. Get inspired by our past guests including Adrian Grenier of Lonely Whale; Kate Williams of 1% For the Planet; Xiuhtezcatl Martinez of Earth Guardians; Dr. Marcus Eriksen of 5 Gyres Institute; Bea Johnson of Zero Waste Home; Orsola de Castro of Fashion Revolution; TED speaker and pioneering food waste activist Tristram Stuart; Tom Szaky of TerraCycle; and Peggy Shepard of WE ACT For Environmental Justice. Learn how we can align our love for the natural, wild world with our choices to live with purpose and fulfillment; what we need to turn our awareness of deep-rooted, intersectional environmental and social issues into meaningful action; how we can stay positive, motivated, and activated when we feel burnt out and discouraged; and how can we contribute our personal talents, skillset, expertise, and passions to support the regeneration of a healthier future. If this sounds like your jam, hit subscribe and together, let's learn what it takes to thrive in every sense of the word. Thank you for bringing your light! x @KameaChayne
