Meet Depop — the resale platform turning secondhand into a cultural movement — and the Seeing Green Solutionist of the Day.In this Spotlight episode, we explore one of the fastest-growing shifts in sustainable living: the rise of recommerce. The fashion industry is responsible for up to 10% of global carbon emissions and 92 million tons of textile waste each year — but a new generation is redefining what it means to shop, wear and express personal style.Depop is leading this transformation. Part marketplace, part social platform, Depop empowers millions of users — especially Gen Z — to buy, sell and upcycle clothing in a way that’s accessible, creative and climate-conscious. Instead of feeding the fast fashion cycle, Depop keeps garments in circulation longer, reduces demand for virgin materials and turns personal closets into micro-enterprises that support circular fashion.Unlike traditional resale platforms, Depop removes friction from secondhand shopping through intuitive mobile tools, seamless listing features, and community-driven discovery that makes pre-loved fashion feel modern, curated and aspirational. For buyers, it’s a way to shop sustainably without sacrificing expression. For sellers and creators, it’s an opportunity to build businesses rooted in circularity, creativity and climate action.In this episode, we unpack how Depop is turning secondhand into second nature — and why it represents not just a trend, but a fundamental reimagining of fashion’s future. From marketplace innovation to cultural influence, Depop shows that the clothes we choose can be part of the solution.Send us a textSupport the show Thanks for listening to Seeing Green: Solutions for Our Daily Lives.
