This week we have a special episode, a fireside chat I moderated during our recent Conscious Festival in Singapore with the ever-inspiring Arizona Muse on the topic: fashion as a climate solution.
Arizona Muse, credited as the new face of American fashion nay Vogue, has graced the cover of over 40 international Vogue magazines.
But through the glitz and glam, she has kept her feet on the ground, figuratively and literally—in the soil—and has found that that has resonated the most.
Her life’s mission is to raise awareness about the climate emergency and climate solutions, which lead her found DIRT charity.
She is also an Oceans Ambassador for Greenpeace, Advisory Board Member of The Sustainable Angle, and Advisory Board Member of The Biodynamic Demeter Alliance.
In this conversation, Arizona will tell us all about why regenerating soil is one of the most crucial pieces to saving the world, why fashion can and should be a climate solution and so much more.
It’s time to live wide awake.
