Here's a quick round-up of highlights from our research and writing published in 2021, on degrowth, imperialism, decolonization and global justice. Free PDFs of all of these papers are available via the link at the end of the thread. 🧵
A lot of people ask me what I think about textile recycling - while it’s promising - the part I haven’t made clear is that recycling brand new product is an environmental crime. We should be validating that ONLY worn out product is downcycled or recycled.
