PBS has been doing some top tier reporting and interviewing lately. Putting that work in before the new administration destroys journalism.

Buy from the thrift store! There’s so much we do not sell and it gets thrown in bags and bins and shipped overseas

Turning textile waste into building materials is definitely a brilliant strategy.

I wish people wouldn’t donate trash to these organizations. My nephew is like that…if it’s broken instead of discarding it, he thinks donating it is best because needy people don’t care. Ugh.

We need to put the brakes on producing and reproducing (less product AND people).

Chiquita733 :
We need to buy fewer, better quality clothing and manufacturers producing less. It’s both a supply and demand issue, as consumers we shouldn’t be buying the plastic garbage we do.

This should definitely be something we fight back against! I would much rather buy older clothes that were made properly. But eventually, we’re gonna run out the high-quality

I shop second hand, I donate to a thrift that gives outfits to shelters for free, and I strive for 100% recycling in the art I make. It's still not enough

Daniel :
I wear my clothes till they don’t fit me, if I think it’s ugly now I just wear it at home, no one needs more than 2 weeks worth of outfits plus some fancy wear

All of the jeans and any cotton clothes would make great quilts and other items!

CosmoMeek :
Maybe most of these companies had a buyback policy and they will buy it back the clothes at a discount price and then recycle them into different clothes

The Obvious Truth :
There’s people that have learned to make quilts with discarded clothing. Not in Ghana where it would make sense but other places.

sheilabenson785 :
So many jeans should be given or be charged a small amount for people to use it for making something new out of the fabric! Sell in the US for scrap fabric.

Overconsumption, it’s all our fault. We need to purchase only what we need and invest in something that will grow 💵or actually last.

Leviathan747🍉 :
This is why all of my clothes are bought secondhand, and I wear them until they fall apart or give them away when I outgrow them. Everything we use and throw away hurts someone else
