About this listen
We’re throwing away millions of kilos of clothing every week — and our hospitals are among the worst offenders. This week, Hugh and Dan speak with Tom Dawson, founder of Revolution Zero, to explore the hidden environmental disaster of textiles — from fast fashion to hospital scrubs.
Tom reveals how healthcare’s obsession with disposables is fuelling climate change and why polyester might just be the unlikely hero in our fight for a sustainable future. From washing your clothes colder to rewriting hospital laundry standards, Tom lays out a compelling case for reusables, circular systems, and local jobs.
If you've ever worn clothes (yes, that’s all of us), this episode is for you.
