Welcome to Pop Up Stop, an educational and advocacy program dedicated to
diverting post-consumer textile waste from landfills and incineration & spreading awareness about the connection between the way we treat our clothes and the textile waste crisis.
Zero Waste: Fast Fashion's Big Problem and the Circular Fix
The fashion industry, especially the fast fashion sector, is putting immense pressure on our planet by producing garments faster, cheaper, and in greater quantities than ever before, creating serious environmental consequences.
In episode three of VPM’s Zero Waste series, host Natalie Hodge explores the environmental and social impact of the fashion industry. Through conversations with designers, Pop Up Stop researchers, and innovators, she learns about Circular Fashion—a reimagining of how we create and consume clothing. Hodge learns what can be done to slow the tide of textile waste and who is working towards change.
