Today’s fashion and textile industry epitomizes the take-make-waste approach to our natural resources that is at the core of our climate and ecological crises, generating 92 million tons of waste annually. For this second AskNature Hive event highlighting the Nature of Fashion initiative, Prof. Friederike von Wedel-Parlow, Founder and Director of the Beneficial Design Institute (BD-I), shares insights on how BD-I is redefining textile waste into usable, biocompatible feedstock.
Join us to explore how regional circular bioeconomies can move beyond traditional fiber-to-fiber recycling toward an ecosystem where synthetic waste becomes safe organic input, and carbon is biologically reabsorbed into new, regenerative materials.
This event is for AskNature Hive members.
