City becomes first to ban fast fashion adverts

Bristol has become the first UK city to ban fast-fashion adverts on council-owned billboards — the move also blocks ads for non-electric cars, flights and cruise holidays.
The ban applies to bus stops and some city-centre screens, and specifically targets fast-fashion tactics (Black Friday, "drops", influencer promos) to reduce exposure to "high‑carbon" products.
The council expects about £80,000 a year in lost ad income; Greens hailed it as a climate win while at least one Conservative councillor warned it could be a slippery slope.
