Cascale

CEO, Colin Browne, recently shared insights with WWD about the urgent need for coordinated sustainability efforts in the fashion industry. With 59.7% of Cascale members setting science-based targets, we're making strides but still face real-world challenges, particularly further up the supply chain where the majority of emissions occur. Colin reiterates the importance of brands, retailers, and manufacturers collaborating meaningfully in order to drive impactful change: “We must move beyond promises and work in true partnership for the betterment of the industry, its workers, and the planet.” https://lnkd.in/d9MH3uc2
