Hi Everyone and Welcome Back!

This week on 🎧The Nick Halaris Show we are featuring two inspiring civic entrepreneurs—Eliana Konsker and Brigitte Canty—the co-Founders of Zero, an ecommerce marketplace for sustainable fashion brands.  Frustrated by a world that always seems to push sustainability all the way back to consumer choice, Ellie and Brigitte are working to build a product that will actually change industry standards from the inside out.  Their company Zero is focused on promoting fashion brands dedicated to holistic sustainability.   

Ready to dive in? Listen to this episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music and Youtube or on your favorite podcast platform.

I wanted to have Ellie and Brigitte on the show to learn more about the sustainability problems in the fashion industry and to highlight the work they are doing with Zero to improve the industry.  In this wide-ranging discussion we cover:

• Zero’s innovative approach to providing consumers with genuinely sustainable choices

• Why the fashion industry has such a big ESG problem

• How labor practices in the fashion world make consumer choice a tricky affair

• Why a consumption-obsessed culture coupled with all the problems and pitfalls of tech enabled psychologically manipulative advertising creates the not-so-perfect storm for unsustainable fashion

  &

• Much, much more 

We also explore the idea of circular economy and learn what motivated Ellie and Brigitte to dedicate their lives to sustainability. 

I hope you all enjoy this episode.  Thanks for tuning-in!
