Correct Transcript:

In today’s episode, we’re exploring the ever-evolving world of sustainable fashion. It's incredible to see how designers are pushing the boundaries by incorporating recycled materials into their latest collections. This shift towards sustainability is not just about reducing waste but also about creating a more ethical fashion industry. For example, many brands are now utilising organic cotton and bamboo fibres, which are far more environmentally friendly than traditional materials. Moreover, the rise of upcycling in fashion is another exciting development, with designers transforming old garments into something entirely new and fashionable. This trend towards eco-conscious fashion is gaining traction, showing that it’s possible to be both stylish and kind to our planet

Printed "this", the speaker says "today’s"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "In today's episode." The page shows "this", but it is not what you hear.

Printed "enhancing", the speaker says "exploring"

Explanation: The speaker says "we're exploring the ever-evolving", not "enhancing". Both words start with e, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "modellers", the speaker says "designers"

Explanation: Listen for "how designers are pushing". Printed "modellers" begins with a different letter, so follow the audio.

Printed "minimising", the speaker says "reducing"

Explanation: You will hear "about reducing waste". The printed "minimising" starts with a different letter, so trust the word you hear.

Printed "revealing", the speaker says "showing"

Explanation: On the recording the words are "showing that it's possible". Printed "revealing" starts with a different letter, so listen from the first letter.

"sustainable" matches the audio

Explanation: The phrase "the ever-evolving world of sustainable fashion" has a long describing word that may look odd. It is spoken exactly as printed, so do not click it.

"bamboo" matches the audio

Explanation: "organic cotton and bamboo fibres" has a short uncommon name next to other fabrics. The speaker says "bamboo" exactly as printed, so do not click it.
