Die Pläne der EU im Green Deal – und wie können sie umgesetzt werden

It's time to take responsibility
The sustainability scene in our industry is growing every day. That is fundamentally good! It's good that many people and many entrepreneurs recognize that the apparel industry worldwide is in a dead end.

It's also good that an increasing number of bloggers, journalists and filmmakers are making the ills of our industry an issue.
