One of my favorite sweaters is from Garden24 by artist & poet Morgan Harper Nichols. She reminds us that: “You are worthy of new beginnings.”
I couldn’t have expected those words to ring more true this year. Here are my Fashion Eco Score goals & resolutions for 2021! I decided to come up with twelve – one for each month of the year:
- Fall in love with new small local businesses (and feature them on my page!)
- Mend or upcycle an item of clothing (and hopefully pick up sewing)
- Repurpose old t-shirts into blankets, pouches, cleaning cloths
- Start emailing brands
- Promote & support SB62
- Sign more petitions
- Become an active sustainable fashion ambassador through a national or international program
- Cultivate a Fashion Eco Score community online and connect with new friends ❤️
- Listen to a sustainability podcast
- Finish the Climatepedia program and earn my certificate in climate literacy! Once finished, I hope to complete Fashion Revolution’s free course Fashion’s Future: The Sustainable Development Goals.
- Write an article about Fashion Eco Score for an online publication
- Complete a Winter & Spring 2021 Fashion Eco Score Challenge and do an annual reflection on Fashion Eco Score’s one-year anniversary!
