Hey, it's Amy Scott, host of how we survive. We know the climate crisis is scary,

and it can be overwhelming trying to figure out how you can make a difference in your own life,

which is why I'm excited to present our new series, Burning Questions.

Each episode explores a pressing question about the climate crisis and how our

individual and collective actions can make an impact. And it's a video series so if you

prefer to watch you can head over to YouTube to check it out.

In this first installment, we get into Fast Fashion.

Reporter Josie Wong is in conversation with Fast fashion expert Elizabeth Klein

to discuss the impact of our clothing on the planet.

And what I love most about this conversation

is that it is chock full of helpful tips

for anyone trying to change their own habits around buying clothes.

Bohemath Sheehan.

We're joined now by fashion industry expert

and author Elizabeth Klein.

Elizabeth is also a professor of fashion policy

and consumerism and sustainability at Columbia University.
