Taking on the fast fashion industry, the second most pollutingindustry in the world, Sara Pascoe welcomes back Reduce ReuseRecycle week.

They can combine several bags to transformthem in just 90 minutes, making imaginative use of thedifferent prints and straps.Finally, the sewers have beenasked to source second-hand crochet blankets to create amade-to-measure outfit. They need to ensure that while choppingup their blankets, they don't unravel before they are sewninto outfits.
