When it comes to tipping points, the climate and nature conversations are often focused on the threats of irreversible damage. But tipping points can also drive positive actions. At #TheFashionPact our work looks at how we can leverage collective action to drive these positive tipping points. For example, our CVPPA – the biggest collective renewable energy power purchasing agreement in fashion – is designed to not only enable energy transition for participants, but also the creation of more renewable energy across the European grid for everyone. As the University of Exeter found in their Global Tipping Points report: “Many areas of society have the potential to be ‘tipped’, including politics, social norms and mindsets. But these opportunities are not realised on their own. Concerted and coordinated action is usually needed to create the enabling conditions for triggering positive tipping points. Once near a tipping point, it may even be triggered by relatively small groups with targeted action. Appropriate governance can enable this process and is required to equitably manage its knock- on effects, so that all parts of society can engage with and benefit from tipping point opportunities.” #TippingPoints #ClimateAction #RenewableEnergy #Renewables #SustainableFashion #Fashion https://bit.ly/3xRMQzi

A collective shift to renewable energy is not a choice – it is a necessity. And the only way to achieve the transition is to work with each other and involve the whole fashion industry. Working with 12 brands of different sizes from around the world – with support from Guidehouse, 2050.cloud, and Baker McKenzie – we launched the CVPPA, the fashion industry’s largest collective renewable energy purchasing agreement. This pioneering agreement not only secures long-term affordable access to renewable energy for the participants, it invests in the creation of more renewables across Europe's grid, accelerating the journey to net-zero. In this exclusive micro-documentary we speak with participating sustainability leads, from some of the world’s best-known brands, to explore how they worked together to help deliver this landmark deal – overcoming technical, financial, and capacity challenges they could not do alone.

"To transform industries and markets we need courageous, collective action. The fashion industry has a huge opportunity to address its carbon emissions, plastic pollution, the unsustainable sourcing of materials, and the social standards all too often lacking across its value chain." As this report sets out, we are starting to see the type of collaborative effort that leads to real impact. The challenge now is to build on this progress to accelerate action and scale the benefits.

That is why we bring together leaders from across the fashion value chain to focus on systemic challenges such as climate change, nature loss, and ocean health. Our latest update report shows growth in the number of our members not merely talking about these issues, but putting in place robust and science driven targets. It also shows how we can work together to go further and faster than any of us could do alone. https://bit.ly/4bgrBoq #Climate #Biodiversity #Fashion #SustainableFashion #ClimateAction #Sustainability #TheFashionPact
