Join Cornell researchers and the Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability for an interactive discussion and showcase on sustainability within the fashion industry. Our speakers, Danielle Eiseman (Veterinary College / Public & Ecosystem Health), Denise Green (Human Ecology / Human Centered Design), Sarosh Kuruvilla (ILR School / Global Labor & Work), will explore and highlight key points from the film The True Cost (available through Cornell University Library with a NetID) and the global climate impacts we face from rising demand for fashion trends. Beyond the impacts, our goal is to share ideas on solutions and actions we all can take to reduce the environmental impacts of the clothing industry.

We invite the broader community to share their approaches to environmentally friendly fashion, whether it is mending, tailoring, thrifting, or recycling fibers, bring it to the event and share!

February 26,  4-6 p.m. | 121 Atkinson Hall
