Welcome back to Spot On Sustainability. We hope you missed us!

In this episode of Spot On, we’re diving into the world of fast fashion and its impact on sustainability, with special guest Gini Weber, an assistant professor at Mount Royal University. Gini brought their expertise in marketing and sustainability to unpack what fast fashion really means—how social media, marketing trends, and a culture of constant newness drive the rapid production and consumption of clothing.

This semester, season one is housed at Mount Royal University, situated on an ancient and storied land steeped in ceremony and history that, until recently, was occupied exclusively by people indigenous to this place. With gratitude and reciprocity, this podcast acknowledges the relationships to the land and all beings, and the songs, stories and teachings of the Siksika Nation, the Piikani Nation, the Kainai Nation, the Îethka Stoney Nakoda Nation (consisting of the Chiniki, Bearspaw and Goodstoney Nations), the people of the Tsuut’ina Nation, and the Métis.
