The Future of Luxury: Can we have our world and sustain it too?

Our guests this week on Sea Change Radio talk about the development of green luxury, and suggest that products that are both luxurious and sustainable may be an important trend. First, Sea Change Radio host, Alex Wise, speaks with Dr. Jem Bendell, a sustainability professor, consultant and author. Next, Alex talks to Beth Gerstein, the Co-founder and Co-Ceo of Brilliant Earth, a socially responsible jewelry company. Green luxury. The two concepts seem diametrically opposed. We usually equate sustainable lifestyle with one involving sacrifices – driving a smaller car, turning down the AC, or reaching deeper into our wallets to buy pesticide-free fruit. And we think of luxury as something involving “no sacrifice.” But ever-increasing consumer awareness and demand, coupled with product innovation has led us to the dawn of the green luxury age. One in which sacrifices can be minimal.While it may sound more virtuous to forego luxury entirely, the reality is that people in the developed world continue to be attracted to luxury items. Furthermore, the market for these items is expanding rapidly in parts of the world that are experiencing fast-paced economic growth. But perhaps this luxurious consumption need not necessarily contradict principles of conservation and social responsibility. In a recent poll of U.S. consumers 34% said they were more likely to buy “green-tinged” products under current economic conditions. And luxury brands are responding by aligning themselves with green themes of all kinds. The world now has a Chanel-branded Segway, Tiffany’s website boasts that the company obtains its materials for jewelry in environmentally sensitive ways, and Gucci’s parent-company has sponsored a documentary film about environmental crises. Some of these efforts may fall into the category of insincere “green-washing,” but if world brands are actually beginning to engage in more responsible practices, could it be considered an important step in the sustainability transition? Are we on the cusp of an era where a product’s low carbon footprint or social responsibility credentials are integrated into its luxury status?

Night of Terror-Women Suffragist Picket Wilson

Asking for a little respect—or just the right to caste a ballot-- can get you beaten and tossed into a jail if you’re not careful. Just ask the women suffragist movement of the early 20th century. They were hung and beaten in jail cells, forced to eat rancid food and choked by guards. What was the crime that called for such extreme measures? These women had the temerity to picket the White House in their effort to win the Vote.

The US EPA, Dioxins, Cancer, and Money

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has struggled to create a science based document describing the exposure and disease outcomes associated with exposure to dioxins and dioxin-like compounds since the 1980s. The 2003 draft dioxin reassessment is the most recent draft of this document. Creation of this document is a preliminary step to development of federal government policies and actions that would protect the environment and public health in matters relating to: (1) dioxin pollution that exists at numerous hazardous waste sites and brownfields throughout the United States; (2) contamination of the US food supply with dioxins, and dioxin-like compounds; (3) dioxin pollution in sediments of major rivers and surface waters where dioxins were discharged in waste waters, especially in the case of paper mill discharges; and (4) the contamination of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia with large quantities of dioxins resultant from the aerial spraying of herbicides during the Vietnam War. During the Summer of 2010, the EPA conducted two meetings of its Science Advisory Board Dioxin Review Panel , so as to move forward with finalization of the May 2010 draft report titled, “EPA’s Reanalysis of Key Issues of Dioxin Toxicity and Response to NAS Comments”. The Dioxin Review Panel is slated to meet again in October. Corporate consultants have raised a plethora of scientific issues to delay finalization of the above named report and by so doing delay finalization of the dioxin reassessment itself. Dr. Peter deFur, senior scientist and founder of Environmental Stewardship Concepts, answers questions about this federal government activity that can only be described as a terrible failure to use science to protect the environment and the public health. This government failure is caused by the large amount of influence that corporations have over the federal government. Many people and animals have been exposed to dioxins at levels that have significantly contributed to cancers that they have subsequently developed as a direct result of this failure. The federal, state and county public health agencies are all waiting on EPA to set dioxin policy after it finalizes the draft dioxin reassessment. While they wait they remain silent about the dioxin exposure problems that people around the world and across America face every day. Thus, large numbers of people make no efforts to reduce their dioxin exposure and the dioxin exposure of their pets. The governmental failure to use science to prevent cancer in the case of dioxin exposure will eventually come to be recognized as one of the most egregious outcomes of corporate domination of the government of the United States of America. Knowing the facts of dioxin, cancer and money will motivate many future revolutionaries.
