How can algae help us detoxify the fashion industry? – with Algaeing

Have you ever thought about the composition of your clothes, or how
the bright colors on your favorite shirts were created? In this
episode, Janine talks to Dr. Renana Krebs, co-founder and CEO of
Algaeing, about the ways algae could potentially reinvent the ways
of today’s fashion industry. After seeing the danger and toxicity
of conventional textile productions and colorful dyes, Renana
decided to take matters into her own hands and build a company that
uses algae to create and dye clothing in a safe and sustainable
way. But how exactly does this work? Renana walks us through the
processes of developing textiles and dyes with the seemingly
inconspicuous organisms we know as algae.
