🌿FABRIC Initiative Engages 16 Major Fashion Brands on Nature-Positive Action🌿 The textiles and apparel industry plays a significant role in biodiversity loss. It is responsible for approximately 35% of microplastic pollution and 20% of global water pollution, and it's projected to use 35% more land for fibre production by 2030 – an extra 115 million hectares that could be left to preserve biodiversity. To help drive the positive change urgently needed in the fashion industry, our FABRIC initiative is supporting a group of investors, collectively managing €5.85 trillion in assets, to engage 16 major fashion companies on nature-positive strategies. This initiative calls on brands like Adidas, Nike, H&M, and LVMH to: ✅ Commit to biodiversity-positive practices ✅ Improve supply chain traceability ✅ Implement circular economy principles ✅ Set science-based, actionable targets ✅ Enhance transparency with frameworks like TNFD Through constructive dialogue, the finance sector can help these companies embrace nature-positive practices and contribute to reversing biodiversity loss by 2030. 🌍👗 The FABRIC initiative was launched at #COP16Colombia, with Laudes Foundation support.
