From the Archive | Spotlight Comic: “Fashion Dos and Don’ts 2050: Climate Apocalypse Edition”

This was originally published at The Rumpus on July 3, 2018.

“Fashion Dos and Don’ts 2050: Climate Apocalypse Edition” was inspired by my ever-increasing anxiety about climate change—how it’s making the world less inhabitable for humans, plants and animals, and how much worse it’s going to get in the future. And while I’m not sure how we’re going to reverse the environmental degradation it has caused, I do have some savvy tips for what to can wear when most of the world’s resources have been depleted.
