Ep. 64 - Abbie Dewhurst - How To Shop Sustainably While Still Enjoying Fashion
Abbie Dewhurst is a TV and Radio weather Presenter and a strong advocate for conscious living and sustainability. In this episode we discuss: the never-ending cycle of consumption and ways to avoid compulsive purchasing, whether it actually matters if we support or avoid fast fashion in the grand scheme of the world - will our actions make a difference? Whether you need to go to University to work for the BBC, how the UK are experiencing climate change more than ever before, Abbie’s experience as the Environment Reporter at Wimbledon and what people are wearing to this iconic sports event, what sustainability actually means and looks like, the importance of first impressions, tone of voice and speed, and much more!
