There are four of them who came to the Maison RêVée in Bègles to participate in the textile fresco, imagined by the Green Donut association, this Saturday, February 3. Modeled on the climate fresco, they had three hours to collaborate in order to understand how this industry works. Among the participants, all are already aware of the issues of climate change and have an appetite for the world of fabric.
Their presence was motivated by multiple causes. Sébastien and Lisa came to “learn more and question their own practices”. Carole trained as a model maker and today works in the laundry at Bordeaux University Hospital. By participating in this fresco, she hopes to complete her knowledge and why not in turn lead the workshop within the hospital. Maëva hopes to start her own eco-responsible clothing brand, “but before that, I want to learn more about the limits of the industry”.
Four participants, already aware of climate issues, took part in the workshop.

10% of global greenhouse gas emissions
Antonin Le Bougnec, animator of the fresco, accompanied them throughout the afternoon. “This workshop is a tool to raise awareness, but not to make people feel guilty. The idea is not to say that we should stop dressing, but to understand the entire life of a textile, as well as its social and environmental impact.”
Every year, 130 billion items of clothing are purchased. In 2020, a report from the Environment and Energy Management Agency (Ademe) highlighted that the textile industry was the third global sector to consume the most water. Each year, it emits 1.2 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases, or 10% of global emissions.
The textile fresco is a collaborative workshop. For three hours, participants think together using cards to come up with solutions.

What do we learn at the end of the textile fresco? “We transmit sobriety, the fact of knowing how to target our needs, and we encourage buying second-hand,” explains Antonin. The objective is not to sink into fast fashion, a system of overproduction and overconsumption.”
