Sustainability in Action Roundtable: The Future of Fabrics

Date:
November 12, 2021

Time:
11:00 am - 12:30 pm EST

Venue:
Online

As consumers increasingly recognize the importance and urgency of addressing the environmental threats that humans create, exacerbate, and suffer from, they are increasing the pressure on industries that have the biggest impact on our climate and environment. Leaders in the textile industry have responded to these pressures by reevaluating their sourcing, production, consumption, and waste management practices to ensure that the clothes we wear and fabrics we use every day in our built environment truly advance the tide of sustainability. Southface’s next Sustainability in Action Roundtable will explore how different corners of the textile industry are looking to the future and committing to a cyclical, responsible, and ethical model that contributes to a regenerative global economy — one that gives back more than it uses.
Panelists Diana Rosenburg (Sr. Manager, Product Sustainability, GAP Inc.), Tanjuria Willis (Owner, eKlozet), and Joey Shea (Mission Activation, Interface) will share insights on how consumers, business owners, and builders alike can help define the future of fabrics.
