Wear it again save the planet
Tuesday, 18 August, 2026
In this episode, host Gurpreet Kaur explores the environmental impact of our clothing choices, especially during wedding season when there is often pressure to wear something new to every celebration. From lehengas and suits to sherwanis, how much waste does this "wear it once" culture create? The conversation looks at fast fashion, textile waste, thrift shopping and the growing trend of buying second-hand. Gurpreet also discusses practical ways South Asian families can borrow, rent, exchange, reuse and alter outfits, while extending the same mindset to furniture, décor, kitchenware and other everyday items. A thought-provoking conversation about changing our habits and asking one simple question before we shop: Do we really need to buy something new?
