Chapter 8 Page 4 - Vondelpark

Il corpo di Philip Kleinman, famoso architetto americano, viene ritrovato in una stanza di Palazzo Carli, il luogo in cui si è appena svolta una conferenza, a cui lo stesso Kleinman ha partecipato. Accanto al cadavere viene ritrovato un foglietto di carta su cui c'è scritto il numero 88. Quale sarà mai il significato di questo numero?  E chi è l'assassino?

Se io fossi Sherlock Holmes

Il caso Philip Kleinman

C’erano una volta una volpe e una cicogna che si consideravano buone amiche.
Un giorno la volpe invitò a pranzo la cicogna; per farle uno scherzo, preparò della minestra e la servì in due vassoi piatti: la volpe riusciva a leccare con facilità la minestra nel suo vassoio, mentre la cicogna riusciva a malapena a bagnare la punta del becco nella minestra.
“Non ti piace la minestra?” chiese la volpe alla sua amica. “È buonissima, non preoccuparti; anzi, è così buona che son già sazia”.

Qualche giorno dopo, la cicogna ricambiò l’invito: voleva restituire lo scherzo alla volpe. Arrivato il giorno del pranzo, imbandì la tavola ma mise tutti i cibi in vasi dal collo lungo, come quelli che si usano per i fiori. La cicogna infilava il suo lungo becco nei vasi, gustandosi i manicaretti prelibati che aveva preparato. La volpe, invece, per quanto provasse ad infilare il muso e ad allungare la lingua, rimase a bocca asciutta.
“Non ti piace il pranzo che ti ho preparato?” chiese la cicogna. “Figurati, è delizioso. Così buono che sono già sazia” rispose la volpe. E così la cicogna si vendicò dell’amica burlona.

Morale della favola: Chi la fa, l’aspetti.

EP 8. CARNAVAL DE BARRANQUILLA

Textile waste is an urgent global problem, with only 12% recycled worldwide, according to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a fashion sustainability nonprofit.

Nowhere is the problem greater than in China, the world's largest textile producer and consumer, where more than 26 million tons of clothes are thrown away each year, according to government statistics. Most of it ends up in landfills.

The country's clothing industry is dominated by "fast fashion" — cheap clothes made from unrecyclable synthetics. And Chinese e-commerce brands Shein and Temu make the country one of the world's largest producers of cheap fashion, selling in more than 150 countries.

Currently, only about 20% of China's textiles are recycled, according to the Chinese government. And many Chinese consumers are unwilling to buy used items anyway.

Still, among younger Chinese, there is a growing awareness of sustainability and some "remade" clothing businesses have emerged.

Designer Zhang Na's fashion label, Reclothing Bank, sells clothes, bags and other accessories made from materials such as plastic bottles, fishing nets and flour sacks.

The items' labels have QR codes that show their composition, how they were made and the source of the materials.

Reclothing Bank began in 2010 to give "new life to old things," Zhang said of her store in Shanghai. A large used clothes deposit box sits outside the entrance.

Zhang said she has seen sustainability consciousness grow since she opened her store, with core customers in their 20s and 30s.

But recycled garments sold at stores like Reclothing Bank cost much more than fast-fashion brands due to their production methods.

And that's the real problem, said Sheng Lu, professor of fashion and apparel studies at the University of Delaware.

"Studies repeatedly show consumers are not willing to pay higher for clothing made from recycled materials" he said.
