This episode of the podcast explores how Gen Z's penchant for bringing social issues to the forefront impacts the financial services they use and their choice of providers. We look at one particular partnership between Klarna and Good on You that demonstrates the power to serve Gen Z via a collaboration that combines sustainability with financial services. We'll also explore how some of the largest financial institutions can navigate this new generation by more deeply understanding them – it will require some evolution, though. This conversation is part of a special podcast series where we explore the fascinating Gen Z deeper: their relationship with money, how they like to save, spend, and borrow money, their fears and aspirations, and their connections to social issues. Joining me on this episode is Salah Said, Head of Sustainability at Klarna, Dave Donovan, Head of Publicis Sapient's Financial Services Practice in North America, and JD Shadel, Editor at Large at Good on You, which publishes data on 5,000 fashion brands' sustainability. Tearsheet thanks our sponsor Publicis Sapient for their support. Read more and download customer research about Gen Z and financial services at SteezLife. Now, let's talk about Gen Z, financial services, and social issues. **The big ideas** * Gen Z's Impact on Financial Services: Gen Z is reshaping the financial services industry through their strong focus on sustainability, ethical practices, and social impact. Financial institutions must adapt to meet the values-driven demands of this generation. * Sustainability as a Key Driver: Sustainability is no longer just a buzzword; it's becoming a key driver in financial decision-making for Gen Z. They prioritize financial health, social impact, and making investments that align with their values. * Technological Solutions: Technology, particularly fintech, is playing a significant role in promoting sustainability within financial services. Digital-only banking platforms, eco-friendly credit cards, blockchain, and crowdfunding are some examples of tech-driven sustainability solutions. * Collaborations for Impact: Collaboration between companies and organizations is crucial to drive sustainability efforts forward. Partnerships, like the one between Good On You and Klarna, are instrumental in making sustainability accessible and empowering consumers. * Fashion Sustainability: Sustainable fashion is gaining popularity among Gen Z, influencing their lifestyle choices and financial decisions. A growing emphasis on circularity and expecting brands to communicate their sustainability efforts are key trends. * Consumer Empowerment: Empowering consumers with information is essential. Tools that help track carbon emissions, round up change for sustainability projects, and promote ethical credit cards are becoming increasingly relevant in helping consumers make sustainable choices. * Inclusion and Affordability: Accessibility to sustainable products and financial services is vital. Large enterprises should aim to provide more inclusive financial instruments, ensuring that sustainability is not just an option for those with financial means.

Is the recently announced Australia-US Climate, Critical Minerals and Clean Energy Transformation Compact going to mean Australia gets to ride the wave of the subsidy superbonanza Inflation Reduction Act rather than get dumped by it? Perhaps too soon to tell, but your intrepid hosts can always be relied on for a hot take! *Shirtfranking with Frontie* includes a PSA for the very excellent app for ethical brand ratings,  Good On You, and a rundown on known forced labour and modern slavery risks in cotton t-shirt supply chains. And because all roads lead to climate chat on this pod, there is an intersection with the manufacture of solar panels. Of course there isThis week's deep dive is a GAS! Specifically, ‘The Future of Gas', according to the European Academies Science Advisory Council (EASAC). This paper found us heavily referencing our back catalogue (but neglecting to actually properly point to the episodes), so  newer Summerupperers might want to check out these gems:On GWP20 v GWP100 - “Measure twice, cut nunce? Tackling methane from Aussie coal mines”On learning rates - “Ka-ching! Act now for huge learning rate savings!”On gas transition in Australia - “Infrastructure Victoria presents: A Very December 2021 Gas Report”On transport of hydrogen - “Elementary, my dear IRENA: Hydrogen transport”Frankie's One More Thing is the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis article on the latest cost estimates of the small modular nuclear reactor from NuScale and Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems. Hint: it's gotten *way* more exxy, mostly due to construction supply chain cost increases. Prediction: it won't be the last cost increase!Tennant's One More Thing is “Victoria's 2035 Climate Action Target: Driving Growth And Prosperity”, the final report from the independent expert panel that recommended a 2035 target of an 80% emissions reduction on 2005 levels for Victoria. Hat tip to Tennant who served on the panel and to the Victorian Government for adopting their recommended target!Luke's One More Thing is the smorgasbord of climate stars who visited Australian shores to participate in the Energy Efficiency Council's recent National Conference. Hear from heat pump aficionado Jan Rosenow by revisiting his appearance on ABC Radio doing energy technology: hot or not? And Jacques Morris from the UK's Transition plan Task Force talking net zero transition plans at an Australian Sustainable Finance Institute event. Oh and Rob Murray-Leach's literal swan song at the Conference's Gala dinner after 14 years at the Energy Efficiency Council. We'll miss you Rob!And that's all from us this week Summerupperers!

Lobby Series: Each episode from this series takes place in the lobby of some of Sydney's most iconic buildings and brings together our very own in-house experts with market leaders who are shaping our future cities.  The fashion industry has come under enormous pressure to think about how they design, manufacture and ship products in a more ethical and sustainable way.   In this episode of Talking Property, Kate Bailey, the Head of Retail and Alternatives Research at CBRE, sits down with Gordon Renouf, CEO & Founder of Good On You. Together, they discuss the consumer trends driving the future of fashion, whether immersive retail experiences will fuel consumerism or aid a more circular economy and whether companies can be profitable while still considering ESG factors.  

Kevin Ann Jordan@tailoredstylist has been helping women get dressed since age three, starting with her younger sister. Growing up in a remote mountain town in California, she didn't have a lot of exposure to the fashion world but she loved the bi-annual school clothing shopping trips and reading fashion magazines. Kevin has always wanted to help people, and after a corporate career in the healthcare industry, she realized that she could help women on an individual level through styling. Starting at Stitch Fix, Kevin was trained as a virtual stylist and later started her own business, cultivating a roster of clients around the world from Sydney to New York to Vancouver.Always practical, Kevin disliked the amount of waste created by the fashion industry, including the amount of low quality clothing piling up in women's closets. With a mantra of quality over quantity, Kevin began to discover the sustainable fashion movement. Starting in her own closet, Kevin learned just how bad our clothing, and consumerist culture is for the planet, its people and animals.Today, Kevin makes it her mission to help the planet one closet at a time through her one-on-one work with clients, as well as the Sustainable Style Club she launched in 2022. Kevin is spreading the message about buying less, recycling more, curating mindful, beautiful closets and wearing clothes that make us feel great, without compromising the planet.She's my guest this week and shares a million good ideas about how to think about what you're wearing and how it impacts the environment starting with understanding your style manifesto, to buying less, re-imagining your clothes and how to recycle them. Her work is truly quite transformative, and I am excited to share this conversation with you.Here are some of the resources and companies Kevin talked about on the show today: Good On You app and website Goodonyou.eco, ForDays - takeback bag, Marine Layer, Smartwool, Nisolo Everlane,Outerknown,Madewell, Eileen Fisher and Patagonia.Today's show was engineered by Ian Seda from Radiokingston.org.Our show music is from Shana Falana!Feel free to email me, say hello: she@iwantwhatshehas.org** Please: SUBSCRIBE to the pod and leave a REVIEW wherever you are listening, it helps other users FIND IThttp://iwantwhatshehas.org/podcastITUNES | SPOTIFY | STITCHERITUNES: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/i-want-what-she-has/id1451648361?mt=2SPOTIFY:https://open.spotify.com/show/77pmJwS2q9vTywz7Uhiyff?si=G2eYCjLjT3KltgdfA6XXCASTITCHER: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/she-wants/i-want-what-she-has?refid=stpr'Follow:INSTAGRAM * https://www.instagram.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcast/FACEBOOK * https://www.facebook.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcastTWITTER * https://twitter.com/wantwhatshehas

In deze allereerste aflevering vertel ik je alles over mijn verleden als "fast-fashion-junkie". Iedere ochtend stond ik balend voor mijn veel te volle kledingkast, omdat ik weer eens geen idee had wat ik aan moest trekken. Mijn antwoord op dat probleem? De stad in, op koopjesjacht! Uiteindelijk begon dat aan mijn geweten te knagen en verlangde ik, meer dan ooit, naar een kast waar alleen maar lievelingskleren in zouden hangen. Dus nam ik afscheid van die wegwerpkast en bouwde ik aan mijn droomgarderobe. Een kast vol liefde. Genoemd in deze aflevering: Good On You: https://goodonyou.eco/ Let's connect!

Gordon Renouf from Good On You, chats to us about sustainable fashion. We all want to look good and stay up with the latest trends but how do we do this in a sustainable and ethical way?

Saving money, reducing waste, and being yourself: these are fashion trends we can definitely get behind, and, they're good for the planet, too. Have you, like our stylish panel of podcasters, embraced thrifting, upcycling, mending and otherwise extending the life of garments you already own? Nice! But it's hard to totally hang up fast fashion, especially for different body types and sizes—even though we know most newly purchased garments get landfilled after just a few wearings, many synthetic fabrics will never biodegrade, and, according to some industry estimates, it takes 10,000 gallons of water to produce just one pair of denim jeans. That is not a good look... Here are our best tips for back-to-school dressing in 2021, and a sustainable shopping list (below).

Johanna Kinnock and Maria Jencel try to find out what it actually takes to be the change they want to see in the world. “Greenwashing” is the scary trend of companies' trying to appear far more sustainable than they actually are. In the corporate race to sound and look as green as possible, how can consumers keep up? How do we know what's for real? We speak to greenwashing expert Andreas Rasche about whether intention matters when it comes to sustainability and Gordon Renouf, co-founder of popular brand transparency app Good On You about how everyone has the right to know where their clothes came from. We also throw ourselves in the green end by trying to go a day without consuming anything un-sustainable (to dubious success).  Here are links to what we've been reading about greenwashing. The troubling evolution of greenwashing, The GuardianGood On You, transparent fashion app This app tells you how ethical fashion brands really are, DAZED  

GREENWASHOctober 12th 2020Production: Vivien Langford and Andy BrittInterviews: Kurt Johnson with Sandra Capone of Good On You fashion App. James Whitmore with Dr Ted Trainer of UNSW http://simplicityinstitute.org/  When the CEO of Royal Dutch Shell says "We cannot go faster than society. We cannot sell what customers don't want", we have to wonder who persuaded us to want oil?  IN Australia as COVID recovery plans promote gas we need to ask, Who filled our minds with the idea that gas is "cleaner", more modern, and the gas companies are a commmunity asset.? https://mumbrella.com.au/gas-billboard-claiming-to-be-cleaner-and-greener-pulled-by-watchdog-for-misleading-consumers-635364 The Guardian this year decided to refuse all ads for oil and gas. They were driven by the urgency of climate action reported by their journalists.https://www.theguardian.com/media/2020/jan/29/guardian-to-ban-advertising-from-fossil-fuel-firms-climate-crisis Client Earth launched a complaint against BP's global advertising. Australian Lawyer Sophie Marjanac said  “BP is spending millions on advertising to give the impression that it’s racing to renewables, that its gas is cleaner, and that it is part of the climate solution.” BP is an oil and gas giant and historically the fifth most polluting fossil fuel company in the world."We ask should all fossil fuel ads be banned or should they carry a tobacco style warning from the IPCC? SANDRA CAPPONI talks to  Kurt  about  Good On YOU. : Greenwashed Fashion means that you may need this  app to buy ethically produced clothes.It is used globally and Emma Watson is their No 1 Supporter . She says" On the red carpet we’re often asked not what we are wearing but ‘who’. It’s as if the ideas behind the clothes – the label, the designer, the collection – have more meaning than the garment itself. But there’s something missing.........In truth, we can all play a part in driving fashion to be more sustainable and ethical. By choosing to wear clothes from labels that embrace transparent, creative and innovative production methods; and by re-wearing, recycling, swapping and thrifting.Good on You: https://goodonyou.eco/TED TRAINER repairs his own clothes and lives frugally. He talks to James about a life of simplicity and a radical reorganisation of society based on co operative communities. COVID may have made us more receptive to his ideas and we have had a taste of the alternatives in lockdown. Without  the delusions created by GREENWASH maybe we could take back some of our power as citizens instead of being powerless consumers. As Thoreau said:  "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life and see if I could not learn what it had to teach me, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”Thoreau.

A clear, crisp day in Marshalltown was the setting for this episodeWe enjoyed the warmth that the just powered down furnace provided throughout the show. The furniture was re-arraigned to provide an even more inviting atmosphere and a new level of comfort. We talked about the State of California establishing a task force to study and make recommendations on reparations for slavery. We introduced a new segment called “Good On You” and the San Diego Loyal soccer club manager Landon Donovan is the first entry. With the good comes the bad, as we discuss how celebrities don’t seem to get allowed a second chance or a chance at redemption, and we closed out the episode talking about what we see in the future for Ted Lasso and the Richmond crew, this is one of our favorite shows of all time and we are sad to see it end for the season.Thank you for being a friend of Present Company IncludedWebsite:https://presentcoinc.comInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/presentcoincTwitter:https://twitter.com/presentcoincShirts:https://www.facebook.com/SideHustleCraftss/Art:https://www.ashleygrego.com/

How much of a brand’s marketing can you trust? Are brands acting responsibly, and who is holding them accountable? Sandra Capponi founded Good on You to answer just these questions, empowering consumers to make informed purchase decisions.

Tricia Hart – Slow Fashion Bio: Tricia currently lectures in fashion studies and professional practice at TAFE Queensland and University of Canberra. Her career in fashion began with bridal design. From there she moved to retail management and buying before operating her own boutique. She also runs a creative industry with her partner which specialises in colonial and contemporary Australian history and culture. Tricia's research areas include sustainable and ethical fashion in particular critical analysis of imagery associated with ethical fashion. She has presented at conferences in India and Japan and led study tours to India and Japan. Key points: · Works at TAFE as a Fashion Teacher/Educator with a passion for sustainability. · Also lecturers at the University of Canberra in Creative Industries. · Grew up in a household where she was encouraged to be thrifty, plus have respect for nature & the environment - the key principles of ethical & sustainable fashion. . Jeans washed or not washed in 2 separate experiments over a 3 month period showed no difference in bacteria build up. · How does sustainability & ethics exist together? Ethical fashion must be sustainable – people & animals are part of the planet. How do we navigate the overwhelm? · The supply chain in the fashion industry is complex – for example…where is the fibre grown & the material made? · If we all wore clothing with natural dyes there would not be enough land left to grow edible crops – which provides an interesting consideration for natural alternatives. Clothes made off shore are cheaper which creates overconsumption. · Retailers normally buy more clothing than they can sell – which encourages over consumption. · Excess stock when not sold is then sold at a reduced price & then sadly dumped if not sold. · The laundering process of a garment is among the most damaging to our environment. Nano particles/micro fibres end up in our waterways when synthetic fabric is washed. These have been found in honey & the ice cores in the Arctic circle! This of course enters our food chain. · The term 'Fashion' – means change. How does one navigate slow fashion or 'ethical' fashion with change as its pivot? Perhaps reflect on what your non negotiable values are to guide your choices. · How does the fashion industry promote & value 'change'? The fashion industry is the 3rd most wasteful industry. · Blended fabrics or fibre blends – poly cotton - can’t be separated & therefore recycled, so consider this in your choice. . If wearing synthetic fabrics wash it less & not on a gentle cycle. . Think before you buy. Buy natural. Buy ethical. Become more aware of the supply chain - do your research (Good On You app, Ethical Clothing Australia website, Baptist World Aid website). · Green washing – many brands just promote an aspect of their making & not the whole process of that garment. · Being true to our own values is important. · Vegan leather is now able to be made out of pineapple fibres, rather than from plastics. . Clothes swaps are a great way to REUSE clothing items. In SUMMARY: Value what you have. Buy less. When you do make a purchase do your research. Buy quality - it lasts longer. Make sure it fits (an overlooked area of sustainability). Spot clean.

Untangling the fashion supply chain, model Charli Howard gets a first-hand account of what it takes to stitch the western wardrobe from Bangladeshi garment-worker-turned-activist Kalpona Akter. Kalpona shares her journey from being a child working on a factory floor to becoming a frontline campaigner for jobs with dignity in the garment factories of Bangladesh and beyond. How can we be sure that £2 T-shirt didn't cost someone's livelihood - or even their life - as in the case of the Rana Plaza factory collapse of 2013? Well, now there's an app for that - sort of. Good On You co-founder Sandra Capponi explains how the app rates fashion brands on their impact on people, planet and animals. The app aims to empower shoppers to make ethical choices, while incentivising the industry to do better. Presenter: Charli Howard Producer: Kirsty McQuire Editor: Rebecca Stratford

Today’s episode is taking us down under, to connect with Australian native and social innovator Sandra Capponi. Sandra spent 8 years working for National Australian Bank trying to move the social responsibility needle from within a large institution. Equal parts inspired and infuriated by her experience, she stepped out to found Good On You - an app dedicated to helping consumers check the integrity and impact of the brands they buy from.

Katrin Ley is the CEO of FASHION FOR GOOD, an Amersterdam-based organisation that was co-founded by Cradle-to-Cradle's William McDonough. They aim to bring together the entire fashion ecosystem with incentives, resources and tools for sustainability. At Fashion For Good's core is McDonough’s concept of the Five Goods, which, he says, “represent an aspirational framework we can all use to work towards a world in which we do not simply take, make, waste, but rather take, make, renew and restore.”  In interview Katrin and Clare discuss what good looks like when it comes to clothing production and circularity. Case study: the first Gold Cradle to Cradle Certified jeans and T-shirts. There’s a strong focus in this interview on innovation, new ideas and disruptors. We also explore this new age of sharing and helping each other, because, as Katrin says, if we want to change the fashion system, that’s what it’s going to take. Is the fashion industry really ready for serious collaboration? What about you? How can you find your purpose? How can you align your work with your values?  DON'T MISS OUR SHOWNOTES - the are packed with links & extra info Chat with Clare on Instagram and Twitter @mrspress THANK YOU FOR LISTENING.

And whom do you trust to provide an honest assessment about the ethical and environmental performance of apparel products and the companies behind them? Mike Schragger talks to Lona Alia from Style Lend and Sandra Capponi from Good On You, two entrepreneurs who believe their solutions will empower customers and drive change. This podcast has been produced in collaboration with Ecotextile News.

Good On You: The App That's Changing the Way We Shop For Ethical Clothing The Takeaways: Good On You is an app that rates brands in the fashion industry on a five-star scale based on the sustainability and ethical practices used in manufacturing the clothing Brands earn their ratings based on three components: methods of production, quality-of-life for their employees, and animal cruelty assessments The app is FREE to download! The other day I was out shopping for a new bathing suit. As I was pulling hangers off the rack, it occurred to me that I had no idea where the majority of these fabrics came from or how they were manufactured. I wondered about the quality of the material, if there was micro-plastic particles hiding behind the bold prints, and the health of the human whose hands had been sewing this suit just months before my hands found it. The fashion industry has been making serious strides toward sustainable and ethically produced products, though some brands are more dedicated to these practices than others. Curious how your favorite brands stack up against the rest? There’s an easy way to find out: use the Good On You ethical shopping app!

In episode 54, Kestrel connects with Sandra Capponi, the Co-Founder & Head of Development for Good On You, an app that helps you find fashion that has a positive impact on people, the planet and animals. Nowadays, there’s literally an app for everything. In this chat, Sandra shares insight on how she believes that apps can make an impact, and how giving people access to information can empower them to make better decisions. Kestrel asks Sandra about the sharing of information and how apps can potentially work together to aggregate their information, and collaborate on pushing for change.
