Have you ever thought about the composition of your clothes, or how the bright colors on your favorite shirts were created?
In this episode, Janine talks to Dr. Renana Krebs, co-founder and CEO of Algaeing, about the ways algae could potentially reinvent the ways of today’s fashion industry. After seeing the danger and toxicity of conventional textile productions and colorful dyes, Renana decided to take matters into her own hands and build a company that uses algae to create and dye clothing in a safe and sustainable way. But how exactly does this work? Renana walks us through the processes of developing textiles and dyes with the seemingly inconspicuous organisms we know as algae.
In this episode, you will learn:
- Why the fashion industry needs detoxifying
