DEAR HARRIETTE: I just had a wonderful and fun conversation with my sister for the first time in years. Usually when we talk, she is rude, and I end up getting my feelings hurt. I'm not even sure if she was rude this time. I do know that her ways didn't bother me at all. I found her funny and entertaining. This is such a switch from the past. I'm wondering if I have finally either developed a thickenough skin to her barbs or if she has changed or what.
● The World Bank recently reported that the fashion industry alone is responsible for 10 percent of annual global carbon emissions, and that number is expected to surge to 50% by 2030. It's all due to "fast fashion," where clothing is worn just a few times, or worse, just once. To combat this, they recommend using gentle washing cycles to reduce wear and tear. Plus, consider the "soak cycle" to let detergent work without tossing clothes. Finally, air-drying reduces clothes shrinkage, too. Buy quality, not quantity, to make the biggest impact.
