Fashion has bounced back strongly after Covid-19. The industry is now worth a reported $1.7trn, and is the largest e-commerce sector in the world. But this all means environmental impacts. Fashion also accounts for a reported 8%-10% of global carbon emissions , and means huge strides are needed if the industry is to make significant progress towards net zero emissions. The sector must act.

Thankfully, some of the biggest global fashion brands are engaging with the major questions that this raises. How can they embed renewable energy in their global operations? How can this help them to reduce scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions across their value chain? And will this be enough to make the changes we need?

In this episode, we are joined by Asmma Chaudry Landfeldt, Head of Renewable Energy Investments at fashion chain H&M to discuss these issues. Asmma has spent ten years at H&M, which was founded in 1947, and is the second-largest fashion retailer in the world.
