Not all that’s labeled ‘ethical’ truly is. 💔 A recent report revealed that so-called ‘ethical’ cotton is being picked by child laborers in India, with forced labor and debt bo***ge linked to major brands like Zara, H&M, Gap, and Amazon.

It’s a harsh reminder to dig deeper into supply chains and question the sustainability claims of big corporations.

Labels aren’t always what they seem.

The image beautifully illustrates the Laniakea Supercluster, an immense cosmic web of approximately 100,000 galaxies, including our Milky Way.
The red dot pinpoints our location within this vast expanse, reminding us of just how small yet significant we are in the grand tapestry of the universe.

With around 300 billion stars in our galaxy alone, it’s awe-inspiring to think of the infinite possibilities beyond our tiny cosmic corner.

A humbling view, isn’t it?

Can Uniqlo really be considered sustainable? 🤔
Last month, Clare Waight Keller, formerly of Givenchy, became their new creative director, introducing a minimalist, trend-proof collection.

While limits new styles per season (125 vs. Zara’s 20,000+), they still produced 500 million garments last year. Only 8.5% were made from eco-friendly materials. 🌍👕

The debate continues: is this “less bad” or not enough? Share your thoughts in the comments! 💭

Welcome to this week's edition of Sustainability Pulse! We're tackling the constant dilemma of overconsumption and its impact on the planet.

While many brands talk a big game about sustainability, the truth is, we're still caught in a cycle of "more, more, more"—and it's taking a toll. Fast fashion giants are pushing air shipping costs through the roof, microplastic pollution is making its way into our bodies, and even recycling programs can't keep up with the sheer volume of waste.

As consumers, we're more concerned about climate change than ever, yet businesses often focus on getting us to buy sustainably rather than helping us live sustainably. There's a growing disconnect, and it's clear that true sustainability isn't just about what we buy—it's about reducing how much we consume in the first place.

This week's stories dive into these challenges, from brands like Steve Madden offering take-back programs to fashion's ongoing struggle with synthetic fibers.
