[[Stella McCartney, Burberry among fashion brands uniting against climate change]]

Really? They are pouring their billions into the effort? No? Didn’t think so!

If they want to really fight climate change, im afraid they will have to close down their factories, as per Directive 904 from the Ministry of the Environment.

Who needs clothing if it’s getting warmer?

Forget these guys! Go naked!

Or wear a palm frond.

That’s what the Warmists want. We all end up back in the caves wearing loinclothes shivering in the darkness.

How many pollutants are caused by Burberry manufacturing. If Stella was truly concerned, she close the business.

More than 30,000 attendees at this circle jerk. I wonder how much CO2 that released? No to mention the methane.

Seems like the left is ramping up this climate change fantasy all over the place, as well as quadrupling down on getting rid of Trump. Now add to this extreme unrest in France and other European places.

I do see a world war brewing here, as in world civil war, with Russia, China, Iran and a few others just helping out by fueling the fires with propaganda and weapons and then moving in for the final kill on all of Western Civilization.

I have a feeling the rash of apocalyptic shows like Lost of yesteryear and the zombie shows of today are popular because many know such survivalism may be a way of the future.

Do designer brands depend on liberal buyers in their business?

uniting against climate change

Silly me. For a moment I thought they were uniting against the false dichotomy of the climate change ruse.

“...our clothes pollute the ocean with microfibers equating to approximately 50 million plastic bottles each year.”

OMG! I never considered microfibers. We’re friggin’ done for now.

the REAL solution is to eliminate “fashion” clothing and issue everyone an indestructible Mao Suit every 20 years or so ... then we wouldn’t be sending garbage trucks full of discarded clothes to landfills every second ... but somehow i don’t think these “fashion” outfits want an ACTUAL solution ... they just want to virtue signal ...

The reason fashion is such a prodigious producer of emissions and garbage is because it is planned obsolescence. The insecure, status-seeking folk willingly purchase new clothes each year (or maybe more often) in order to keep up and retain their shallow friends.

If some folks weren’t so sartorially insecure, the emissions and garbage would go way down as people held on to their old clothes longer.
