A Jolly Good Time?

  As the holidays approach we look to the changing weather, the lively television programs. the constant family gatherings and much more. But as the days move along has anyone actually paused to think how it's still 80 ° in November? Honestly, it has already been a season of major wins and losses after this major election but noticeably the climate is getting a whole lot worse , and it’s hard to ignore. While we’re swapping sweaters for swimsuits in the middle of November, it begs the question: What is actually happening to our planet? Climate change isn't just some distant, future threat. It's here, impacting the way we live, work, and even celebrate the holidays. From unseasonably warm winters to intense hurricanes and wildfires, the effects are clear. Yet, as we focus on politics, social issues, and holiday shopping, it can be easy to overlook just how critical it is to take action.

Election

So a lot of things have been buzzing lately in our world. But the one thing that's been consistently tracking is...the election. Now you might be wondering, what does the election have to do with sustainability and fashion? Well, a lot actually.The leaders we elect influence policies on everything from environmental protection to labor rights—factors that directly impact the fashion industry.


For instance, policies supporting renewable energy and stricter carbon emissions could push major fashion brands to reduce their environmental footprints, especially those that rely heavily on fossil fuels for production and transport. Leaders committed to labor reform could advocate for fair wages and safer working conditions in garment factories worldwide, ensuring that the people who make our clothes are treated with dignity.

And it’s not just the big names in fashion that are affected. Small, independent brands committed to sustainability also benefit when leaders support green businesses. Tax incentives, grants, and other programs can help eco-friendly brands thrive, giving consumers more ethical and sustainable options to choose from.

So, when you’re thinking about casting your vote, remember that it’s not just about the big-picture policies—it’s about the values you want to support in all areas, including the fashion you wear every day.
