Two thirds of fibres and materials are produced with fossil fuels as are the dyes used to colour, print and finish them. Fashion needs to cut overall production and switch to low impact, natural materials produced through the principles of regenerative organic agriculture, favouring small scale and local producers.Join this webinar and learn more about:<ul><li>Regenerative agriculture</li><li>Circular economy</li><li>Natural fibre and dye systems</li><li>Restoration of ecosystems &amp; biodiversity </li><li>Adopting better buying practices</li></ul>Our panel is a mix of experts, coming at this issue from different angles and areas of the industry.Speakers:<ul><ul><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-compson-39055127/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Sarah Compson</a> - <a href="https://www.soilassociation.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Soil Association</a>/<a href="https://textileexchange.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Textile Exchange </a></li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/debbie-luffman-b9089047/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Debbie Luffman - </a>ThinkCircular/<a href="https://www.hubbub.org.uk" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Hubbub</a></li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/aneelambavaram/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Aneel Kumar Ambavaram</a> - <a href="https://www.raddiscotton.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Raddis Cotton</a></li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/johdawson/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Jo Dawson</a> - H.
