Textile waste pollution is a major problem around the globe but we can contribute in reducing the impact of textile pollution on the planet.
Simple things you can do to reduce textile waste pollution include;
1. Swap your clothes with your friends
You can organize a clothes exchange event where each person brings the clothes they no longer want and then you trade or swap for everyone to go back home with fresh items for the wardrobe.
2. Donate and Feel Great
There millions of people across the globe who do not have clothes. Donating your clothing is a great way to give back to the community while also clearing out space in your closet.
3. Be Creative and repurpose your old clothes
Check out online resources for creative ideas on how to turn an old t-shirt into something fresh and new. Or come up with your own ideas to re-fashion your clothing.
4. Sell your unwanted clothes
Resell your clothing online or at your neighborhood. This is a great way to earn some cash.
5. Invest in quality clothes and buy less
While donating, reselling, and recycling are nice, the fact of the matter is there’s already an excess of clothes in the secondhand system and this is a major issue which is why investing in quality clothing and buying less are very important in curbing textile pollution
#Call2Action
We can do more but we lack materials and machines to increase our textile recycling and women empowerment project. We have 11 trainees and 02 Training Directors but have just 06 machines which are not enough for the 13 young girls who are striving to get empowered as well as clean-up the world. It is for this reason that @ecodesigns is striving to raise funds to purchase 7 machines so that we can double our productivity and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of our textile recycling and fashion designing training.
