            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The fashion system needs to become a catalyst for positive change, and it can be! This vision is why we were born.</p><p>Now, imagine a world in which waste is nothing but a ghost from the past. Do you also see green fields, people breathing in clean air, drinking clear water, and are just more happy? We envision a global system in which health and overall well-being is the status quo. Exploitation of planet and people is out, Regeneration is in.</p><p>Before we dive into the principles hinted at in the title, let&apos;s first dive into why we are in such a big mess. One of the biggest drivers of global warming are Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHGs) coming from landfills. To help reduce or even reverse global warming, these GHGs must be tackled. Therefore, The Positive Fibers® Manifesto for Citizens is our first step to stimulate mindfulness relationships with our wardrobes, making them a force for positive change on the climate and our own well-being.</p><ol><li><p>Never throw a piece of textile in the bin</p></li><li><p>Contact the brand you purchased the item from what to do</p></li><li><p>Get your clothes, shoes, jewelry, and accessories repaired</p></li><li><p>Choose craftsmanship over mass production to assure better quality</p></li><li><p>Embrace your personal style to become immune to marketing</p></li><li><p>Visit your closet to make new combinations with what you already own</p></li><li><p>Ask brands about what they do to recycle the items you bought from them</p></li><li><p>Sell fashion items you no longer feel connected with</p></li><li><p>Give away fashion items you no longer want but someone else confirms they do</p></li><li><p>Think twice before buying something (be it new, pre-loved, or even rented)</p></li></ol><p>To support our mission, join us on <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc" class="dont-break-out" href="http://www.positivefibers.com">www.positivefibers.com</a></p>]]></content:encoded>

Only time can tell.</p><p>Worth the effort? 100%</p><p><strong>OUR STORY</strong></p><p>Our story starts in 2018 when our founder, The Circular Fashion Detective, watched a life-changing documentary called The True Cost. The footage exposes the unethical practices that makes the fashion brands rich at the expense of human lives. Not only that, natural resources get exploited along the way too. Think about all those fields of cotton crops that are nurtured with toxic chemicals (pesticides) to which both the soil and human beings are exposed. It’s unethical towards people ánd the planet.</p><p><strong>The time for change is truly now.</strong></p><p>What an exciting time to be alive! Thanks to Web 3 technologies we are more connected than ever before, shift quickly between continents without having to jump on a plane, and are able to guarantee that we buy what we stand for: fashion with a purpose, made under guaranteed ethical circumstances.</p><p>As we like to call it: <strong>Aesthetics matching Ethics.</strong></p><p><strong>WHAT’S NEXT?</strong></p><p>Coming soon is our first NFT launch of a unique garment that is both of an aesthetically pleasing contemporary design ánd made in the most responsible supply chain to date.</p><p>We are excited to finally able to share the fruits of our hard work with you and invite you therefore to join our journey here and via our website: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc" class="dont-break-out" href="http://www.positivefibers.com">www.positivefibers.com</a></p><p>Ciao for now,</p><p>Team Positive Fibers®</p>]]></content:encoded>
