Canada’s largest wireless company earned 99 Canadian cents per share on an adjusted basis, less than the C$1.01 expected by analysts in a Bloomberg survey. Revenue of almost C$5 billion was in line with forecasts.

The $1.7 trillion fashion industry is a major polluter: By one estimate, it’s responsible for between 8% and 10% of annual greenhouse gas emissions, more than aviation and shipping combined. Clothes manufacturing relies on fossil-fuel-derived fibers like polyester and guzzles energy and water. And the churn of fast fashion means that many items are discarded soon after they’re purchased, which has contributed to eye-popping amounts of textile waste.
