Wool in School has a licensing opportunity: a Climate-Resource Information Pack that artists, educators, or businesses can share online.
The pack is free to download, print, and share with customers, clients, staff, families, schools, and community partners. Included is a workbook and ten activity sheets.
Why this matters for fashion and textiles:
Materials and product lifecycles sit at the heart of fashion’s climate impact on Sustainable Development Goals. These include the following: fibre choices, durability, repair, reuse, waste, land and biodiversity.
Climate strategies succeed when people understand these links. Giving children (and the adults around them) practical tools is one of the most credible “beyond the value chain” actions a fashion or textile business can take.
From fibre production to product lifespan and end-of-life, textiles connect to:
- carbon impacts,
- circularity and waste reduction,
- biodiversity and land stewardship,
- consumer behaviour and repair culture.
- Supporting education in this space is a credible way to strengthen one’s climate narrative.
