We ask whether clothing rental could help tackle the environmental impact of fashion. Alice Wilby is a sustainable fashion expert who lectures at the Central Saint Martin's College in London, and discusses the background. Elaina Simms is chief operating officer of MyWardrobeHQ, which offers clothing rental in the UK, and tells us why they believe it's a model that could catch on. And we discuss likely consumer interest in the idea with Samantha Conti, London bureau chief of the fashion industry's trade journal, Women's Wear Daily. Also in the programme, we hear about the changes and disruption faced by farmers in Chile, who are now sharing the landscape with vast lithium mines. Plus on budget day in the Netherlands, our correspondent explains how public attitude to multinationals has contributed to tax changes.
