In this Ski Podcast Special, Iain interviews Florian Palluel, Sustainability and Transparency Manager at organic-clothing.com/en/">Picture Organic Clothing.

Sustainability in the clothing industry has never been more important, with research showing it is responsible for up to 10% of greenhouse gas emissions and 20% of all global wastewater. 

During this interview we discuss many topics including: 

·       the history of the company

·       their supply chain and how they source their materials

·       why they choose to manufacture in Turkey & China and not France

·       what steps they are taking to reduce packaging

·       how they are making their new offices as sustainable as possible

·       whether in the future a zero-emission ski jacket might be possible

We also mention this survey by consultancy McKinsey about consumer views on sustainable fashion.
