Consciously, with Tegan

• Regenerative wool farming, with Holly Kane

  In this episode, Tegan chats with Holly Kane about her research into regenerative wool farming in South Africa. Regenerative agriculture is an evolution of conventional agriculture, reducing the use of water and other sources, and preventing land degradation and deforestation. Practically, it typically protects and improves soil, biodiversity, climate resilience and water resources. But there’s a lot more to it. Read more about Holly’s research here, and follow her Instagram. I also introduce my newsletter/Substack, Haute & Bothered, by Tegan where I focus on climate change and fashion. Check that out if it interests you!

• The Fashion Revolution, with Safiyya Karim

  So often we focus on the bad, and forget to talk about the good when it comes to the fashion industry. There are many organisations putting in the hard work to do good, so today Tegan dives into this, particularly into Fashion Revolution. Safiyya Karim, one of South Africa’s country coordinators for Fashion Revolution, shines some light on the organisation’s movement and the upcoming Fashion Revolution Week. They share how you can get involved, and encourage women to go for what they want out of life.
