It was a busy news week in sustainable fashion, and Shein once again sucked all the oxygen out of the room. From being fined for a data breach to suffering a damaging investigation into its treatment of workers to announcing a peer-to-peer resale platform powered by Treet, the fast fashion powerhouse popped up everywhere.

We talk with Jake Disraeli, the co-founder and CEO of Treet, about its work powering the Shein resale marketplace called Shein Exchange, and how it works with brands. Then we look at Goodwill’s new luxury e-commerce efforts and its new site goodwillfinds.com, and we like it!

We also answer a listener question about all the packaging she sees from brands claiming to be sustainable.
