It’s never been more important to think & do differently. We need a NEW economic system that creates & supports low carbon livelihoods, our ecology & the biosphere on a massive scale. Fair Trade principals hold the key to this. Join me Friday 1st May https://t.co/3JWuKbCjHQ

About 200,000 garment workers are back at work in #Bangladesh, often without enough protection: "I'm going to work every day and I'm full of fear. In my factory, there are so many of us working in such a small place, which increases the risk of infection." https://t.co/sYKdA5VVxD

Sweatpants are the new norm, but just because they’re effortless to wear doesn’t mean they were effortless to make. Check out these 10 #ecofriendly #leisurewear brands.

[The Fashion Common Room @fashioncommroom]

Transparency is a tool for change not a metric for #sustainable or #ethical business practice.

@hm stop trying to dupe your customers into believing you are 'doing good'.

You may be #transparent but all we see underneath is cheap consumerism.

Happy #FashionRevolutionday ! Today we honor the Rana Plaza catastrophe and push for a more transparent, fair, and ethical fashion industry ✨

[Margarida Vasconcelos @daisyandthyme]

Did you know producing plastic-based fibres such as polyester for textiles uses an estimated 342 million barrels of oil every year? Ask brands #WhatsInMyClothes? and demand they take responsibility for the natural resources they take and the lands and waters they pollute.

30 years after his death, Ryan White’s courageous legacy remains an inspiration to all fighting to relegate HIV/AIDS to the history books and ensure all people living with HIV are able to live full lives free from discrimination.

Through centuries of persecution, exile and struggle, the story of Passover has reminded the Jewish people––and all of humanity––of the power to overcome even the greatest of odds. Michelle and I send our warmest wishes to those celebrating with loved ones at home or virtually.

Over-reliance on single-use products pollutes our oceans. But you ~can~ make a difference. Here's how. https://t.co/M6bGbDf4nV

[Fairly Robyn @fairlyrobyn]

Your efforts to cut waste don’t need to be perfect. If everyone made small changes, it would become a huge change. 🌍 @globalwakecup #zerowaste #climatechange #fairlyrobyn

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

We've seen all too terribly the consequences of those who denied warnings of a pandemic. We can't afford any more consequences of climate denial. All of us, especially young people, have to demand better of our government at every level and vote this fall. https://t.co/K8Ucu7iVDK
